Default Need help deciding 2017 LS460 F Sport

Hello,
I am looking to purchase my first LS and have narrowed it down to a CPO 2017 model year car. My question is I had not thought of an F sport as an option but do like the appearance.My concern is obviously the air suspension and reliability. Anyone who has owned both is it worth pursuing or should I stick with a traditional LS460 with options I want?
I plan to keep the car for years and don’t know if it’s worth the risk. I understand that an extended warranty will limit having to pay for air suspension repair but then there is the cost of adding an extended warranty. Any feedback would be appreciated.

The air suspension is absolutely worth it. The issues surrounding it were largely resolved by the time the 2013+ cars came out. If you're buying a CPO car, it's irrelevant anyway as that's a covered repair. My 2013 LS460 with air suspension lasted 173k miles with me with zero issues and is now carrying its new owner in that same level of comfort. You're cheating yourself if you don't get it.

Put extra $4k or $5k in a saving for the new suspension replacement.
