    Greetings.

    2005 Prius, 141K Miles. Original Owner. Blue. Beige cloth interior.
    I forget what package, but we had to fly to San Jose to pick it up, this version didn't exist in SoCal.
    It has Traction Control and HID headlights, but no GPS/ Navigation..
    One minor rear ender years ago, paint is poor. Interior is good, everything works. (TRIANGLE OF DEATH too)
    Located near Pasadena, California

    Battery is failing. I just opened it up for the first time. There is at least one bad module, and corrosion on the connectors and bus bars.
    Here is a thread where some of you were very kind patient and helpful in guiding me through the diagnostics.
    2005 Red Triangle, P3000... | PriusChat
    It has brand new Michelin tires, and maintenance records.
    My first impulse is to do it right and buy a Toyota battery over the counter and have at it. However, cash is tight due to C19 work stoppage, and it's a third car in a two driver household.

    So it's for sale. PLEASE MAKE AN OFFER
    It's in the driveway with the battery installed and the rear interior dismantled. It was smogged less than 90 days ago, so I can sell it to you without that hassle if we act quickly.

    I don't really hoard. I rescue these old cars and hopefully put them back on the road again. With a new battery and a new coat of paint, this would look and run as good as your Prius Prime

    It does look pretty shiny. Maybe you can do that to my car?

    I would like to attend, but the drive being 7+ hours, I would need a Prius with autopilot.
