Somebody at Lexus needs a course in product planning and distribution - when I bought 2 years ago, there were no base models in my state - only Premiums. And most of those were pretty loaded (except for ML and LEDs). I was actually more interested in the base model with their 17" wheels, but had to "settle" for a premium. Now it looks like nothing but base models left?

My dealer had today on the lot:
3 HS's. Two were base with no Nav. One was Premium with LED headlights. All were 2012's.
4 CT's. One was base. One was loaded. 2 were F Sport.
1 RX 450h. Loaded
1 LFA. Base price $380,000. Wow.
1 IS F Sport. Hot.
1 LS. No hybrids.
3 or more 2013 GS's. At least one was F Sport. Wow.

I just could NOT get a premium, loaded, in SW Florida. No matter what! I placed an order in 2011, and was told two months later by the sales manager at my SW Florida dealership that the Lexus SE Regional Manager CHANGED my order to reflect a standard model and not a premium. I think they are just using up and inventory of parts, but I have no way of knowing for sure.
I personally see no reason at all to buy a base model - it is just another car to me - but each to his own. I love my premium models (I now have two of them).

Be careful if you want that Sonata...
Great list ! Thanks!!
I looked at most of those before I decided on the HS. One that is missing is the Sonata Hybrid. I wonder about that one. I've seen only one on the road so far.
It was nice, but the L-Ion batteries worried me, and it just didn't have that level of luxury the Lexus had. It felt kind of "cold" and " Cheap Plastic" feeling to me.
