Most end up costing much more than that totalled off copart, if I could get one that I knew had a good batpack and battery![:)]( "Smile")
for around $5k you know what I would do, that hasn't happened on one with a functional battery yet and $7k hasn't that I've seen either. (remember a $7k bid on copart is more like $9k all said and done then shipping)

I don't give a rat's ass. I don't buy replacement parts at the dealer and wouldn't start now. I am sure there will be a battery aftermarket with junk yard batteries and rebuilds that make the dealer price irrelevant.
The same discussion occurred early on with the Prius. Doom/gloom blah blah blah on the expensive replacement battery. Now that the earliest ones are out of warranty, there are instructions for rehabbing your battery for a few hundred dollars.
Totaled Leafs are selling for around $7K. I bet you could get a used battery for around that today.
