    My beloved Toyota Prius 3 is up for sale. Completely reliable and easy to drive...not to mention, super safe. Currently, it's at 151K miles, but it's my daily, so it'll climb, albeit in small amounts.

    Clean title - no accidents, whatsoever. I am the 2nd owner. This vehicle is on a lien from USAA, who will either mail the title directly to the new buyer's home address or new financial institution.

    Comes almost all options available minus leather & solar sunroof. It has bluetooth, navigation, XM radio ready, backup camera, keyless touch sensor on the front door handles, cruise control, AC blows cold, heater works very well. No tears, stains, or scratches on the upholstery.

    Since purchasing this car, I have done extensive repairs and service procedures to keep this Prius up and running for a long time. I'm
    a former mechanic and have addressed all the known Prius issues during my possession.

    -Registration Paid for one year from now
    -Changed out both Front and Rear brakes completely with Wagner Thermoquiet Rotors and Pads (1K miles ago!)
    -Replaced Toyota Brake Actuator to a newer 2014 unit ($1,200 job) @ 140K miles
    -Oil Changed every 5K miles with Mobil 1 0w20
    -Cleaned out EGR Valve @ 148K miles
    -Cleaned out EGR Cooler (vastly improved mileage)
    -Replaced Cabin Air Filter @ 145K miles
    -Replaced Air Intake Filter @ 145K miles
    -Replaced Spark Plugs @ 145K miles
    -Cleaned out EGR pipe @ 145K miles
    -Garage Kept
    -Cleaned Weekly
    -Paint in great condition

    Cons:
    -Scratches underneath the spoiler
    -Cracked Turn Signal Lamp
    -Scratches on the right side of the rear bumper
    -Missing one Hub Cap on the front right
    -Scratches on the front right bottom of the front bumper

    If you have any questions or would like to take a look, please PM me and I'll be happy to either answer your questions or schedule a viewing.

    Thank you!

    Price changed to $7,900.

    Correction: this is actually a 3rd owner Prius - the auto broker I purchased this Prius from had it under ownership.

    I realized my asking price is a bit high, thanks to KBB. Any offer above $7,200.00 takes it. KBB values it between $6900 - $7900. I owe $8,200.00 on it but willing to take the loss since market value dictates reality.

    I have two Priuses, (the other being a 2012 Package 2 with over 200K miles on it that I used to rent out on Turo) so I no longer need this one. I owe the same amount on the other one, so I'm not selling that and decided to keep it until a million miles =O

    PM if interested. Thank you

    Dudeeee, just pay off the car and THEN sell it. It's really not fair to the buyer to make them have to wait for the lien. I bought my car this way and while the seller ended up being a super nice and upstanding guy, the 2 month waiting period was absolute agony and full of uncertainty - for both of us! He was afraid I'd back out and I was afraid he wasn't going to get the title. Don't do business like this man.

    The way I've typically seen this done in the past is the buyer accompanies the seller to the bank and they pay off the vehicle "together" and the seller hands over the title that same day. Maybe this is what he has in mind.

    I've sold cars like this the past few years....I'm not sure what kind of bank had you wait 2 months for the lien to be released, but mine arrived in less than two weeks. The buyer just had the vehicle insured and then received the title once I acquired it in the mail.... you can request the bank to FedEx Priority Overnight the title to you once lien is released, you just have to pay extra, but totally worthwhile. Also, FedEx Priority Overnight the check to the bank. This saves you a lot of time. It also helps a lot to keep the buyer informed of what's going on every other day, or so.

    Anyway, I'm really sorry, misstenacity, but this Prius has been sold. I sent you a PM reply. Sorry about that!
