I was hoping to make it To 200k

I think this will likely be a total. :-(

My gen 2 was totaled with much less damage, sorry.

 

Say goodby ... that may have totaled a new one

 

Did air bags blow? It looks like air bag at steering wheel. I was gonna say not totaled, but air bags might tip it. The driver's side side fender is a bit crumpled too.

 

Sorry, but be grateful -- it did its job as designed right to the finish. It gave up its health for yours.

 

The car should be totaled, KBB on that car is no more than $8000 and that is at least $7000 damage. So it's safe to say, it wouldn't be fixed

 

That looks very similar to the damage on my 2007 Corolla that caused the insurance company to total it. No air bags went off on my car either. Time to start looking at different vehicles

 

Probably totaled. With unibody construction these days, damage often goes a lot father than what you can see on the surface. Glad you're OK. You are OK, right?

 

I'm so sorry that happened to you. I hope everybody's ok. It could have been right into the passenger door and the condition of your Prius would be farthest from your mind. But, still, this is awful in itself.

I also think it's a total: Two quarter panels, hood, the whole bumper assembly, radiator... and the clincher is that the radiator was pushed in. That's going to make a high likelihood of other engine damage.

I'm still not convinced. Again, might hinge on whether or not air bags deployed.

 

Its is toatled from insurance company standpoint. I bought my 2006 in very similar condition with a few not ideal but useable salvage yard parts as in hood and bumper cover. We rebuilt it and its my daily driver but you must be above average mechanic/ technician with moderate body skills. It will not be cheap but it is relative. If serious about evaluating restoring it I would start a laundry / groc list like on Google sheets and use formula to kerp running auto calculated total of what you need then go scout out local salvages first then ebay and Amazon (hint search internet online toyota sites for oem part numbers then search ebay and Amazon for them) for availabity and pricing on it all and then add about $ 1k for expendables and misc plus any tools you might need like 13lb slide hammer body kit mig welder with spool gun if inverter housing needs welded (check mounts at rear on bottom and front center corner bracket mounts for lines), plasma cutter (optional) for paint, plastic clamps for all those hoses probably missing broken behind the radiator/ fan assy and lower ball joints and other last minute discoverables when its closer to roadworthy. That will get you very close to project cost. We got lucky and got a brand new set of headlights for $ 60 @ a salvage. Went new on radiator, condenser/ reciever dryer assy. and the core support that only needed about 60% of and hood latch.

Around here NOBODY comes to a legal stop at stop signs. They could really use a police campaign on this: nobody even gets the logic anymore, to come to a full stop behind the broad white line. Busy and know betta. If they don't hit you they give you a heart attack: near impossible to tell if they're going to hit the brakes, in the constant game of chicken.

 

Glad you are safe and sound. Sorry about the car loss.

If air bags got deployed, there's a 99% probability it'll be totaled, based on KBB and other safety reasons.
