There are no dark blue options for the 2011 350 or 450h. I'll bet that most people who actually own their black sapphire cars aren't ready to part with them. There are many in my town.

yeah, I was pissed when I had to part with my Black Sapphire GS. One of the best colors I've ever seen.

my mother-in-law has a 2003 ES in the Black Garnet color...that is awesome too.

I have to agree. Even the invoice for the base FWD without any options would start slightly above $36k... which most of RXs do not come with just the base.

35K might be possible if it's just plain model.

I paid for a 2011 RX350 AWD, PREM,NAV,COMF, Remote start for exactly 40K.

What dealer is it? I did ask for 2011 AWD, PREM, NAV for 40K at Lexus Ira 5 months ago (pay off by cash). They didn't accept so i went with 2010 for 37.5K

Lexus of Watertown. I bought it 2 months ago. I end up financing it since they gave me a 2.9 APR rate.

Very true.

One option in such a case is to take the dealer loan (and better deal) then pay it all off (or refinance it with your lender of choice and possibly get a refinance incentive rebate from that lender) within the first month.
