Buying a CT, what to look for?

It’s hard to pass at that price & miles. I think if you keep on top of the PCV you'll be okay, that thing getting clogged is what leads to head failure.
There are videos on YouTube to guide you through almost any possible repair, the CT/Prius platform is extremely well documented.
IIRC, I was looking at 2015+ for some revisions those years had. What I *really* wanted was a Blue 2015+ CT F-Sport with heated seats and NO nav, but was never able to find that combo.
I then was going to get a 2015+ ES with NO nav but ended up with a 2014 Acura TL for less than half price of the ES.
Lexus screens with the horrendous joystick controller thing are egregiously bad. It took them until 2023 to figure out people want touchscreens.
The second gen CT in the UK looked great, wish we got it in the US.
I’ll leave you with this: Buy the car you want. You won’t have the itch to swap it and you’ll keep it longer, ultimately being a better value.
