Default should i take the offer?

well a friend offered me 1400 for my accord ex today. it has leather, sunroof, power everthing, 2.2L vtec, everything mostly stock. only problem is some asshole decided to throw a boulder at my door and smash my window out, and i just dont have the near 1k to buy an entire new door and window, and get it painted. no body shop will touch it its that bad... should i take this offer? kind of sad that i have to sell my nice honda because some dickhead just wanted the headunit. and i'm sorry to say i'm not getting another honda... the scumbags in this town just go insane for them...

What's the kelly blue book price of your car? Then find the difference between that and the offer, and see if the cost of the damage seems about right.

What mods do you have?

Every area will have thieves, and they don't just focus on honda's.

I'd sell it. No reason to throw that kinda money in a honda if you think its going to get broken into again.

try and work with the price and higher it a tad bit more atleast, that is if the rest of the car and the engine is in good condition.

It's reliable and fuel efficient, so it's a good thing to have since you're broke.

I'd just take precautions...hiding the radio, or getting a headunit with faceplate...etc...
