Aaaaand you still don't make any sense.

Deja, unfortunately the windshield really is that expensive. A cracked one won't fail an 'emissions' test because that sort of test examines the gasses coming from your car's exhaust. A cracked windshield will, however, fail most safety inspections. Not all states have these inspections, and most I've encountered are a racket.

That being said, it's not really safe to drive around with a cracked windshield. It's not nearly as strong as a windshield that's intact.

My guess is that a used windshield is going to be difficult to come by, but it should still be cheaper. Still, if you're only selling the car for a grand, then tell the potential buyer to deal with it or move on. It's not worth arguing when you're selling a car that cheap.
