What about the difference between UAE SUSPENSIONS and USA AIR SUSPENSIONS?

I Have Uae LS460L and not really like it....
I think that this suspensions for perfect roads.On pothholes it feels like you are driving a sportcar...Not very comfortable...

ADVICE PLEASE

Welcome to ClubLexus, Yaroslav!

Does your LS 460 L have the Adaptive Variable Air Suspension (AVS)? Then it should have Sport/Comfort modes which allow you to adjust for the ride quality to some degree.

The U.S. version LS 460 does not have air suspension, and is more 'floaty' without it; the 460 L offers air suspension as an option.

Thanks man!
I could buy USA Version but dint want to wait for 2 months...And now regret...
No, i dont have AVS.
I would like to hear the comparison. Is there so huge difference?

I was in Amman in July and they just opened a Lexus dealership there so I go and checkout the LS 460 and see the MSRP at 129,000JDs which is approx. $165,000. That just for the LS 460 not "L"

I haven't driven it personally but some reviews have suggested that the AVS is a significant difference.

avs (air suspension) is a lot softer than the normal springs/shocks on the ls460.

now uae?! never heard of it

I think the AVS on the Touring model can't be softer than the normal springs/shocks of the LS460 ?? I've never driven the Touring model though.

For the non-Touring models with the AVS, you think even for the "sports" mode it's softer than the regular springs ? (I haven't driven the LS460 without the AVS for too long to remember).
I did notice some slight difference in ride between the "sports" & "comfort" mode, though the difference between the 2 and the medium "normal" mode may not be apparent ...

i actually think the sport mode on the avs (non touring) is a bit closer to the spring/shocks. i do start to feel the difference, definitely a lot more than what they had on the ls430

but instead of "softer", i think i should have used the word "smoother". the dampening and reaction of the suspension is a lot smoother with the avs than springs/shocks.

Hmmm.... on the Lexus site it doesn't say my 2007 Lexus LS 460L come with side dimming mirrors but here it say I do have them. I just wanna know for sure though, so how do I test to see if the mirrors work or not.

I want the interior colors available in the middle east to be available here in the US. The marble interior trim in the car below is utterly majestic. Truly tailored for a prince! I WANT ONE!!!!
