Default GS450H is no more.

I just saw Lexus has discontinued the 450h for 2019. Lucky us that have one. It is no wonder since in the US they only sold 35 in 2017 and up to June 2018 only 25.☹️

The above link was a June comparison, not year end. Here is a link to year end 2016 vs 2017. Volume under 100 a year. For those looking for a used 450 good luck. Choices are only going to get more limited.

Thanks for the info. I have a 2015 GS450H and i love it! especially because its the last year body style before they changed to those other tail lights in 2016. Starfire pearl with the saddle brown interior and all the options! im gonna hold onto mines as long as i can! searched 4 months for it and then had to fly from california to virginia to get it and drive home. Thanks again!

Sounds like the story of many us hybrid owners, including myself. It was a long wait for me to find a used hybrid model that had the options that I was looking for + a color combo that I wanted (or didn't mind). I, too, purchased mine from California but since mine had very minimal miles, I had it shipped back home to Texas.

I can honestly say, it wasn't an easy task like shopping for most used cars or just walking up to a dealership to pick out a car. Would I do it all over again? In a heartbeat! Especially because it helped me narrow down on the options that I truly desired and what options that I could live without.

I also plan to keep mine for as long as I can. I pray to keep me and my vehicle safe on the roads because I knew that if I wreck it, it would NOT be easy to find a replacement. You can only custom order them from the dealership now.

Thanks for sharing that info Tom,
