1. If you feel that the trouble you will go through parting the vehicle out balances with the $800 you will spend on it...feel free. But knowing that the car is pretty much worthless, your friends should sell the parts of any value themselves and donate the car to a charity and take the tax write off.
2. yea i'd buy it..acuras last a long time
3. No. It sounds like too much work is required. The car is certainly not worth a cent.check out the following used car expert websites - check on car value and also get a vehicle inspector to check any car your going to buy and take your Dad with you too! Soemcars wioth high mileage are fine jaguar, rolls royce etc but your average modern car just don't stand the test of time I'm afraid. Also take into account the insurance too.
