I finally went ahead and got a 2025 AWD Calligraphy Hybrid on Sunday. Picked the blue with black interior—perfect for suburban drives around Northern Virginia.
Here’s the breakdown: the dealer knocked the price down from $51.3K (including add-ons and freight) to $46.3K. After dealer fees (~$950) and taxes, the total came to $49.4K out the door.
Now I just need to figure out how to mount a front plate without drilling… any tips?
Nice! Glad to have you here. The blue is such a great choice—enjoy your new ride!

Totally agree, the blue really stands out! Have you decided on any accessories yet?
That’s a solid deal. How was the buying experience with the dealer? Did you feel they were upfront about everything?

Yeah, they were pretty clear about the pricing. I made sure to double-check the numbers beforehand too.
For the front plate, there are stick-on brackets that don’t need drilling. I’ve used one, and it’s held up well so far.
