Reply to comment by scherster in Financing a new car? by Silly_willy__

My goal is to drive it into the ground honestly. I was hoping to do that with my old car but it got totaled.

I’m just nervous about the quote of $2,000. Especially with the holidays right around the corner etc.

Honestly, IMO a catalytic converter has a certain life expectancy, kind of like a timing belt. It's no indication your car is not reliable anymore. With the current used car market, I'd take the chance. And several other responses indicated you should be able to do this repair for about $500, which makes it a no-brainer.
