My off lease car still has 12 bars indicated (full capacity) AND still has several years + 30,000 miles of warranty left on the battery.
Battery cost is correct though, typically $5,500 installed, but when you can get the car with a solid battery for that then why would you at this point. Also keep in mind the battery will likely keep dropping in price. Not to mention there are 150,000 miles cars with factory battery.
