Lexus dealers do not post one national price. Each dealer quotes its own, and the price depends on your model and engine size.

Why a Lexus costs more than a basic oil change
Toyota owns Lexus, so most new Lexus models use Toyota Genuine Motor Oil SAE 0W-20, a full synthetic oil. Fresno Lexus says it costs about $10 to $15 a quart and takes 5 to 8 quarts. That is why oil and filter alone can come to $55 to $150.
Synthetic oil lasts longer. Lexus dealers say new models on synthetic oil need a change about every 10,000 miles, while older models on conventional oil need one about every 5,000 miles.
New cars get a break. Lexus of Cherry Hill says the Lexus complimentary maintenance plan covers the first two service visits, at 6 months or 5,000 miles and 12 months or 10,000 miles. Since the 10,000 mile visit is usually the first oil change on synthetic oil, that first change is often free.
