Default What About Automatic Rear Leveling?

Being new to Lexus, another question:

Do I understand that LS430’s do not have automatic rear leveling? I thought ALL luxury cars have had that for years.

And, is the only way to get it on the 460’s to buy the pricey air suspension package?

For me, automatic rear leveling is a mandatory.

LOAD leveling. Keeps the rear at a constant height regardless of the weight loaded into the rear.

Yup that's correct on the air suspension leveling the load on the New LS.
