Priced for the discriminating buyer that just has to have that combo.

Where is this listing located?

Stuart Florida. The ad might be stale, not sure (not in the market for this car anyway)

Are there any production numbers about how many cars were optioned with saddle? Obviously CL or UL only, so that reduces it. From classifieds searches, it appears UL cars are less than 25% of what I've seen. CL are even more rare. I also saw that saddle was offered on a fewer selection of exterior colors in '06. I definitely want a facelift car.

Have yoiu considered checking out the one for sale on Club Lexus Marketplace? https://www.clublexus.com/forums/market/929856

Saddle - to love or not to love

When saddle was an option to all CL/UL buyers almost "no-one" ordered it.

Now "every-one" agree that it is a very desirable color. Strange.

In contrast. Burgundy/bordeaux was neither popular then nor now.
