| Feb 12, 2016 at 17:47 | comment | added | mikeazo | Who told you it was worth $5000? Is that what the dealership said they would give you for it (as is) on a trade-in, or is that $5000, after a $3,500 engine rebuild? To really answer your question as to whether or not it is worth it to fix the car, we would need to know a lot more about it's reliability history, mileage, etc. You definitely don't want to drop $3500 today only to have to change the transmission in a few months. Needing an engine rebuild on a 2008 seems crazy and may be indicative of other future costly repairs. | |

| Feb 12, 2016 at 13:52 | comment | added | Rémi | I would seek another opinion about the engine rebuild. I'm not a mechanic but I know my way and I find it realy suspicious a miss fire lead to an engine rebuilld. Maybe you can ask at Mechanic.SE about some other guy to pin point you. Anyway I would seek another opinion before doing anything more with the car | |
