I would never give or even sell a car to a friend.
To much annoyance if by chance the car later causes gives them trouble and expensive bills.

And would not give a 5 grand car for free, because giving things for free makes it worthless.
You get a thanks but it will never mean the same thing as what it meant for you to give the car away. Overall you just set yourself up for dissapointment in the relation with that person.

If it was a piece of sjit ex beater that no longer runs, and it's parked in your garage, and you are fed up with it, and friend asks if he can have it for a project. sure.
"by all means, come pick it up... has to be gone by then or it goes to the scrap yard, Do with it as you please, I just want it out of my way."
