(a) Nissan Altima Hybrid
(b) Honda Civic Hybrid
(c) Toyota Prius

2. Get Tax Credit for Buying a Hybrid:

Toyota Prius does not have this, it seems as it has already sold 60K plus vehicles

5. Salvage Value of your Car
The minimum/maximum dealer would give for your old car would be $150 which is value for cars steel, aluminum etc. which is the raw metal cost.

However, suppose you have brand new tires. You can sell the new tires on Craigslist and put on old tires when you give the car to the dealer.
Similarly for Infiniti, there is Bose sound system with expensive speakers. Those can be sold before giving the car to the dealer.
Alloy wheels, security system, carpets, etc. are some other things that can be sold before car is scrapped.
Total Salvage value of Car Parts $500-$1000.

Commonsense dictates: UNPIMP YOUR CAR BEFORE YOU SALVAGE IT!!
