    10K OBO

    2012 Prius HB Model Five
    Silver/Dark Gray Leather Interior
    Location: Apple Valley, CA (Southern California)
    Original HV battery
    1 key fob
    No EGR issues that I know of
    No oil burning
    68~69k original miles (Currently use as a commuter so mileage will go up)
    No lights, noises, smells, etc

    CA Salvage Title – Purchased this used last year from private auto dealer. Dealer showed me rear bumper damage with no frame damage. Repair was done by dealer. This was a CA car and has no rust. Checked over and under and I could not find any issues with this car. Feel free to bring a mechanic or put it on a rack for inspection.

    2nd owner I believe

    Driven all highway by me. I purchased this last year to use as a commuter instead of my Camry V6. I’ve decided since I only commute two days a week now, car is really not needed and I will go back to using my Camry.

    All maintenance done by dealer prior to purchase. Brakes are good, fluids good, no leaks, no abnormal sounds, etc. I haven’t done any maintenance items since I purchased right before the pandemic and now hardly use it. I checked all fluids and topped off as necessary with Toyota Red coolant.

    Stock Features:

    Stock LED projected headlamps
    Navigation
    Heated Leather Seats
    Radar Cruise Control
    Headlight washers
    Lane Departure Warning
    Stock Fog Lights
    Climate Control
    Bluetooth
    OEM Heads up display
    Homelink Rear view mirror which I think is also auto dimming too
    JBL Stereo System

    Since owning it a little over a year prior to commuting with it, I did the following:
    All weather aftermarket mats
    Lowered on Eibach springs
    Tinted windows
    Enkei RPF01 17 inch in black with decent tread and black lugs
    LED fog light bulbs in stock housings
    LED interior lights
    3M Clear Film on Headlights and Foglights
    Lower front and center braces (purchased from member on Prius Chat)
    Tom’s style shorty shifter (purchased from member on Prius Chat)
    Red painted OEM tail lights
    LED Toyota Projector door lights

    I move pretty fast when I get a new toy/car and start adding accessories.

    Cons:

    Rear bumper lip has a slight indentation. I was using my gas power washer and it got a little too close to the bumper. The vibration and movement jiggled the power washer close to the bumper and the exhaust manifold melted a small portion of the plastic bumper. My OCD immediately wanted to fix it, however it is hardly noticeable by me anymore, so I’ll leave that to the new owner.

    Not the best exterior shots since it just rained here and is expected to rain again today.

    I also have a scan gauge II with the blend mount under the rear view mirror.

    Nice! The rear view mirror looks larger than stock, almost like a Wink.

    Thanks. Not sure what a “Wink” is.

    But it’s a clip on extra wide mirror for better view of the rear sides. Auto dim mirror is stock and has the home link.

    A Wink mirror is an extra wide angle rear view mirror, first deployed on competition cars. The originals had from four to six individual flat differently angled panels, while the later models were a single convex curved panel. The objective was to replace fender mirrors while preserving situational awareness to the sides and rear of the car.

    What brand is the rear view mirror? Been trying to find one that can clip onto the thick auto dimming/home link one.

    Also do you plan on selling your wheels?
