    Probably have $2500 in before DMV stuff. I expect it to be a bit more than $3k when all is said and done.

    This!

    Usually its not worth dealing with salvage vehicles unless you have a body shop and can do the work yourself.

    I'll say $3750 (salvaged Prius + minimal necessary repairs + DMV), impressive. Damage must not have been bad as shown in your picture.

    Would love to hear periodic long term updates w/ lots of miles on this car. Hope you can drive it till it falls apart.

    I'm pretty happy so far. It's a nice gen 2. It has good quality aftermarket leather interior and only 95k miles . ImageUploadedByTapatalk1406167100.146747.jpg
