Mine, 2006, has 188K on it and recently got the hybrid battery replace (used hybrid battery). It costs me $750 including labor.

I changed all 6 spark plugs and 3 ignition coils. All denso parts from Toyota instead of Lexus.

Car has become very responsive and acceleration has improved.
Another difference is it engages the hybrid system much better when I drive local and slows down the vehicle instead of cruising.
In highways the hybrid is engaging during downhills and also regenerates in cruise mode.

My mileage has jumped from 23.6 conservative driving to 26.1 mpg at 75 mph.

As of today, 249K on all original components. Two timing belts, a set of plugs and replaced all ignition coils as preventive maintenance. Replaced the two front oxygen sensors as well for PM. Only had to do pads and rotors at 150K. Just be mindful of the vents below the rear passenger seats and keep them clear for ventilation so the battery will not overheat.. I cleaned out the filter on battery every 100K.

Getting about 25.9 MPG on regular gas.
