I have to sell my car

Well it's official. I have to sell my car. I'm buying a new door. Im going to get most or all of the dents and dings out, throw on a cheap maaco paint job, and sell my car for whatever i can get. I wanna die. I love this car. Its the only thing i have. I cant drive anything else. I cant afford the upkeep, i can't afford to fix everything that is wrong with it right now. Its turned into a huge money pit for me and it has to go. My whole family is pushing me to sell it. Anyone been in my situation where you had to sell your 944? If so, how did you cope?

I like the way you think Eldorado. Get that Pearljaman31? It's still your call and if you want it bad enough...work for it. Tell them to sell all the bad drivers in your house and your car will be just fine.

I dont think you should be paying for the paint if it was one of your family that backed into your car.

Also keep in mind that a "cheap Macco paint job" is acutally going to cost quite a bit. unless you are willing and able to fix all the damage, sand it and tape it the bill is going to be quite a bit more than the "$299" they advertise.

Whats wrong with the car, Besides the body damage?
