And Nigel will have to wait a loooong time to buy a Prius needing an out-of-warranty battery replacement.. Battery failure in the Prius due to high mileage is virtually unheard-of-- Plenty of Vancouver Prius taxis have exceeded 250,000 miles with no battery problems. And timewise, post-warranty battery failures for the 2nd-gen ain't going to happen until after 2012. :-) (the warranty is good for up to 10 years in CARB states). You might as well just weld on Prius body panels salvaged from crashed Prii onto another car with your engine/tranny of choice if you want a "sleeper." That would be the easiest way to do it.
