GS350 vs. GS460
it's smoother coz' of 8 speed, the suspension might be better coz' of avs. braking is different coz' of EBC, and coz' of the engine tq the ride will probably be smoother / quieter

I traded a 2006 GS 300 AWD for the GS 460...the 460 is clearly more powerful and rides much smooher....I thought the ride in the GS 300 was great until I experienced the 460...by the way, so far mpg is about the same....go for it!!!

53/47 for the 460 is better than I though it would be. So, given that the weight distribution is pretty much the same. The only difference would be the AVS, which is nothing more than shocks. All the other suspension components are the same right. When I test drove the 460, there was a little diff. in ride quality with the diff. shock settings, but not that much. The bigger diff. was when I push the 460 on turns.
