But also, if you do those repairs, will you be able to get more money for the car in 6 months? You might be able to break even.
If he doesn't do the repairs, he might not find a buyer for the car, except at a rock bottom giveaway price. Would you buy a car with 4 slick tires and other mechanical work needed? I would go on to the next car that everything was operating normally. Most folks don't want to deal with repairs right out of the gate.


I vote for wait until the tax thingie goes away, although I bet the price of used cars will spike for a few months. This is bad on the buying end, but will be good on the selling end.
