2000 Mazda Protege applying for Vehicle Retirement Program. Do you currently have funding for buy back?

My Mazda Protege failed its smog check and will cost over $1,500 to be fixed. At 192,000 miles it's not worth fixing. I would like to take part in the state buy back program and noticed that it was dependent on funding.
Answer:

2000 Mazda Protégé - Applying For The Vehicle Retirement Program: This is correct; funds for the vehicle buy back program can run out, though it is a little early in the year for that. You can find out exactly by calling (800) 952-5210 and asking to speak with the CAP department.
