If you need it for the kids, think about those poor Mormons. Tow it (don't drive it!) to Utah asap, investing in a tow bar for your more economical car if needed. Detail it intensely; no signs of cigarette, alcohol, or coffee use should be present. Park it in front of a temple, put a big American flag on the antennae, and put a Book of Mormon on the passengers seat. On a computer, list important items like the number of people it will carry, and the mileage from the temple to the nearest soccer field, pizza joint, and school. Tape this information clearly on the driver's side window. Title it "About your family values car." . Do it now.
