My ex asked me to sell her car for her, she told me the lowest she would go was 4,000 dollars, and she was asking 8,000. I sold it for 4,000 and she signed the title. Now that we have broken up, she says that I am legally responsible for paying her back the full amount, even though I put all 4,000 in her hand.

She can certainly file a lawsuit but a judge would have to agree with her.
Unfortunately many people that break-up begin fighting about silly things. It sounds like she just needs some money and that is the only complaint that she has against you.
If she sues you then hire an attorney. The burden is on her to prove that you owe her money.
It seems slim - it was her vehicle, she signed the title and she has the money. You merely assisted her in finding a person to buy her vehicle.
Good luck!
