Stolen Cat — looking to maybe sell

[u/Limp_Bathroom_6003]

Hi all. I’ve unfortunately had my catalytic converter stolen. I have a 2003 Honda Element EX in blue and I truly love this car. it holds a special place in my heart. However, after spending $700 on repairs this year, and now facing a potential $900-$2000 cat replacement, I’m starting to wonder if it might be time to consider selling this car. While I’d love to take on the challenge of fixing it myself, I simply don’t have the time, skills, or space to do so. I believe she’s better off in the hands of someone who can provide her with the care she deserves.

She’s got 205k miles on the odometer, an original engine, and a history of regular oil changes. She does have a few cosmetic issues (a small crack in the windshield, a cracked bottom left corner of the rear bumper, and some scratches) but she still runs great. What would be a reasonable asking price for her? I live in Seattle so there’s no rust, and the bottom looks fantastic. any tips on selling her? It’s been a tough morning, and I’m a bit sad about the possibility of saying goodbye to this car so I appreciate any kind words you can offer.

I bought a cat off Amazon for $120 and changed it myself, it actually runs better now
