    Title pretty much says it all. It's a silver one. 2008 Prius, 74k miles for 7500. Checking it out tomorrow. Not sure the condition yet, but looks good from the pictures. Is this a good deal? Thanks!

    For the LA area it might be a normal price, but a bit high of a price if you lived in a different area.... Of course from a private seller and in mint condition I'd buy it if I had the cash for that price for sure.

    agreed, looks good fo LA

    make sure the history is good, owners/accidents/etc

    also, keep a fund for a possible new hybrid battery in the future

    always a cali car?

    It lived in Boca Raton and Lake Park, FL all of its life. Concerned about flooding and other salt-air related issues, but it looks good on the outside. Haven't had a mechanic check it out yet.
