I owe about 2500$ on it, blue book value is 3850 in fair condition..(private party- 2550 for dealer) however, I have been to 2 dealers and both have offered no more than 500$.. I need to get rid of this car. even the mechanic said dont put more money into it..Im going to try to sell PP. QUESTION IS should I keep going to different dealers and hope they up the price?

No the dealers arnt going to give you any more, if the car has damage they are not going to invest the money needed to fix the car. Your best bet is to try to sell it private party, and be honest about it.

You have what is referred to in the business as "sled". You might know it as a "hooptie". Or a "beater".
No sense going to other dealers, most dealers will offer the same amount. If you're buying something new and relatively expensive the offer may be higher but only represents a discount on the new vehicle.
About your only other option is to suck up and drive it until it's paid for. Or let it go to repo but that will trash your credit worse than your hooptie will crash your image...
Maybe see if Pimp My Ride will help you out. ;)
