rominl, does the 460 come with air suspension? I thought only the L and sport had the A.S. option. I'm waiting for the release of the air controller, there was a change in the 2010 model so the older controller won't work.

"Front: Independent upper and lower multi-link
double-joint suspension arms with stabilizer bar

stabilizer bar

Height-adjustable Adapative Variable Air Suspension
(AVS) with electronically modulated damping
(LS 460 AWD, LS 460 L, LS 600h L)

yes, air suspension is an option on the ls460 (swb).

of course, if someone with ls460l (lwb) with air suspension, that'd be great too

The thing I enjoy the most about the air suspension is the quieter ride. Spring noises are virtually eliminated going over bumps. The non-air version has a softer ride mind you, but the stiffer air ride becomes barely noticeable over time.

Both 460 AWD and 460L AWD have air suspension as standard too from day one I believe

On the 460 I see no option for the AS only on the 460L and yes it appears to be standard on the AWD versions.

AS is standard on the SWB LS460 Sport.
