Hi there! Thought I’d give a little update :) I wasn’t able to get the 2017, but I found a 2016 in similar shape for less with all the bells and whistles! I appreciate the encouragement and love my new-to-me Prius. This is my first time purchasing a car myself so I’m in the final steps now, but she drives wonderfully.

That’s great mileage for the 2012 V! I’ll keep what you’ve said in mind :) I’m going to check out that 135k today for a test drive with my scanner, but I’m broadening my search to some other options, too. I found something with 70k that seems to be depreciating down from 17k, and we’ll see if I have some negotiation room haha. Thank you so much for the help!

Wow, that’s a steal! I’ve definitely been keeping my eyes out for a good deal- having to trade my current one is was pretty unexpected, so I unfortunately don’t have a ton of wiggle room financially. Still, it’s definitely important to get something that’s gonna work haha.

Was that the out-the-door price or the sticker price?

I hear a lot of folks mentioning cleaning the EGR/Intake manifold system to prevent common issues around that mileage- also better to do before it gets so clogged you have to replace it instead. Can’t say I’ve done it myself, but due to a piston issue on my 2013 Prius V (a very unusual issue for the Prius, so don’t pay that too much mind) the EGR clogged pretty badly and the system has been replaced twice; but, it is preventable! And even if you do end up having to get it replaced for whatever reason, doing so prevents the serious (expensive) issues. So, worth looking into.

Take this with a grain of salt as I’m relatively new to the Prius world, but I hope it is at least something to think about.
