Anyone have an idea how much it would cost to fix dents/scratches on this car?

A trip to a good detail shop to see what can be polished out is always a good idea as a first step. That can cost $300-$500 depending on where you live.
From there I would see if the Paintless Dent Repair process (PDR) can remove the dents to your satisfaction. Sometimes even if they can't make the dent 100% invisible they can reduce it enough to make it satisfactory depending on your goals and expectations. Compare this with the cost of taking it to a body shop and having them fix the dents and repainting each panel.
The scuffs on the black plastic trim mean those trim pieces would need to be replaced; usually not a difficult job but again, ask yourself your expectations. If they're barely visible is it worth the expense of fixing?

I had a couple door dings that looked similar if not worse to the ones in one of the photos. I had a dent repair guy spend an hour and they were gone...I can't even tell where they once were. Cost about $125.
