The dealers are probably going to pass on this price increase to the customer in every car, not matter whether it was made before or after that date. It will be up to the consumer to determine the manufacturing date and call them on it if the car is priced the same as identical cars made after that date.

This is the problem of having a strong dollar, overseas stuff is more expensive.

Re: Report: U.S. Model Toyotas to See Price Increase on Back of Strong Yen
It doesn't really affect me much since I rarely buy new cars. I think the main effect will happen in 5 years. Most new car buyers are pretty brand-loyal, so the increased pricing won't affect things much... but in 5 years when they sell, the ratio of purchase price to used value won't be quite what they expect from Toyota and it may affect their decision to follow it up with a new Toyota.
