    I apologize if this isn’t the right spot. I’m just trying to figure out what a reasonable or appropriate price would be for my 2011 Prius. I recently bought a new rav4 PHEV due to being able to take advantage of some good rates and opportunities for the price.

    It’s at 210,020 miles. Before I bought the rav4, the engine was replaced with one with around 50k miles. The battery pack was also replaced with a reconditioned one.

    The only real problem is the radio needs to be replaced. An incompetent shop messed that up while I was out of state.

    Upgrades that were done:
    The speakers were upgraded and a sub and amp were installed. Included in this was adding usb for CarPlay/Android Audio. Wouldn’t be removing any of that.
    Charging ports were added to the center console for backseat passengers.
    BlackVue front and rear cameras were installed. The cameras are currently removed, but the wiring is in place, including stuff for a parking mode battery installation under the driver’s seat.
    If whoever buys it has a medical exemption in VA, I can keep the tint (including windshield) currently in it done to the max legal amount.
    I have two ProClip mount points on the center console for either a phone and GPS unit or two phones.
    I have a sun shield and car cover sized specifically for it. New floor mats are in it as well.

    It has some paint dings and fading and other fairly kinor appearance defects, but otherwise runs great. Fuel economy is between 40 and 50 MPG on the replaced engine.

    If I could get around the material cost of the engine, I’d be happy. I’m pretty sure no one would go for the total cost for the engine and battery replacement including labor.

    so the engine was a bit over 4k for the engine itself not including labor. Would that be a reasonable price? Could I go higher? Or would I need to go lower?

    I’ll try to include some pictures.

    I’d appreciate some thoughts, thanks.

    Pricing has alot to do with what region you live in... Most of us won't be able to help much unless have some sense of where in the "USA" you live?
