Lol. Not even remotely close for a Gen 2 Prius. I dunno where you live, but you'd be insane to pay $15k for one of those. There's a nice one for sale with under 100k miles on it right now for $5,000 that's about 20 minutes away from my house right now. That one happens to be a good deal, but at the same time, it's been up for sale for a few weeks now.
Special note: avoid buying a 2010-2014 Prius. Especially an 11 or 12. Head gasket seal issues. If recognized early when they start to leak it's not a big problem if you know how or are willing to learn to replace yourself. Full day job if you're not used to doing that sort of thing. Expensive job if you have to pay someone else to do it. If the problem is ignored you'll end up needing an engine and likely a catalytic converter.
It's pretty easy to find a 2015 under 150k miles for under $10k.
Can you link that listing?
It's in missouri on Facebook marketplace. Just do a search there for a 2006 Prius with like 84,000 miles on it and it will pop up. It's red.
