Hi all,
My friend is selling his Prius 2009 with about 100300 miles on it. It's a s tandard hatchback, and he said he will have it pass the state inspection an d emissions tests (we are in Maryland) before selling. He is asking $9500. He also said that 2 recalled parts are being replaced currently at the deal ership.
The car apparently has been in an accident, and my friend had to replace th e rear door on the driver side. He claims that the accident was not a major one, and that the exterior and interior of the car are in excellent condit ion.
I have never owned a hybrid vehicle. Would you have any advice on whether I should seriously consider buying this car, especially since the car has so many miles on it in 5 years, and it has been in an accident? What are some specific things I need to find out about this car if I seriously consider buying it?
Is the price he is asking too high? KBB value is ~$9K for very good conditi on. I wouldn't say that the car is in excellent condition given the acciden t.
Thank you, Fijoy
