Sorry, wrong forum. This is the LS430 forum. You need LS460.

The "President" is the European name for the "Ultra Luxury" or UL version of the LS430 in North America.

The UL version has height-adjustable air suspension and the complete suite of options available for the car.

I believe the President model is the European version of the LS430 with the Ultra Luxury trim. Air suspension, rear seat audio/climate controls, extra leather trim and many other nice options. Most are "nice too" and not "need too". I could be wrong, others may be more familiar.

the "President" designation was also used in Canada. In the US they run under "Ultra"

Default Ultra premium luxury package 2001 LS430

Ultra premium luxury package in Canada that included: double pane laminated glass, Radar activated Cruise control, Air levelling adjustable suspension. Adjustable rear seats with massagers, rear side window shades, Electric rear window blind, Refrigerator behind rear armrest, heated rear backseats, Control consul and armrest includes AC settings, audio, seat adjustment and massage controls. Rear AC vents in ceiling with separate controls in front consul. Eurca burled wood, grey in combination with ivory perforated leather seats. Right and left rear door automatic seat positioning with memory activated by door open and close. Mark Levinson’s premium sound system. The US market seem to be able to select chrome as a wheel finish. I think our Canadian winters were the reason they didn’t allow this.
