an option not yet mentioned is donating the car. donating it, you can pretty much put the price on it you wish. come tax time, you have to fill out a form if it is for more than a certain amount, but if you're legit, you have nothing to fear. take it off the top of your income and you make out in a couple of ways. first, you're doing something exemplary and it might just bring you down a tax bracket. win-win quite possibly.
