I just got a price quote from fleetrates.com for a AWD 450H that is scheduled to arrive in port at month end. It shows a $575 increase in the base which I was told is the new base price. However, the old price on the Lexus web site has not changed so I question if this is true. If I buy from current inventory I get the old price but they don't have a black saphire. My wife likes the cerulean blue so will consider that if at the lower price.
