Matthew Boehnlein Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 Hello everyone, I have the opportunity to be gifted an 07 Prius gen 2 with 144,191 miles. It is in need of a new exhaust, due to the catilitic converter issue, tires, and possibly brakes and rotors. It has it's original battery that reads a 7. Not really sure what that means. This is the information I have. I'd like to hear opinions on weather I should commit. Thanks all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mambo5 Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 Do you plan on keeping this car after you get it all dialed in or will you fix n sell? If you are going to fix n dash then I say pass. Your repairs will cost about the value you will get from the next buyer if not more. I recommend you fix and enjoy your new daily driver. I got a shop to recondition my hybrid battery for $2K. You'll need to price out the CAT and labor. The other issues are just regular maintenance that I would do after buying any used car. I truly think the cost of repairs are worth the reward to drive one of Toyota's best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
