the subframe needs to be changed, brakes,front shocks, front control arms
Ok, so get it changed.
Scrap the car. It was an awful car when it was new and is not worth spending that kind of money on.
Is there a question here . . . ?
Okay . . . I’ll be the one to pose some questions
Why does the subframe need to be replaced . . . ?
The car was crashed . . . ?
The subframe is completely rusted out . . . ?
If the subframe is rusted out, what about the rest of the car . . . it’s probably just as rusty
Unless you’re doing all the work yourself, it probably doesn’t make financial sense

With a 12 year old vehicle, the expense that is involved with this type of repair is impossible to justify unless one can do all of the work himself/herself.
If the sub-frame needs to be replaced because of severe rust I would be tempted to just get rid of the car considering the other issues.
The exception would be if the car was very low miles and super clean; which I assume it is not.
And only IF there was no bad rust in other areas.
