it could be. i just looked at the adaptive suspension on the 3gs and it's only norm and sport. but same as you i never pay attention to ls460 with no air so i am not 100%

This is the set-up for air suspension ???

This looks like the same control as the AS on my LWB Exec Class. There are actually three positions - the normal position is between the Sport and Comfort although it isn't labelled. There is a noticeable difference among the three - I like the comfort .

In my test drives of the LS460L Exec.Package, I do feel a noticeable difference between comfort & sport . . .

I just picked up my daughter, son-in-law and their big suitcases from the airport. The ride back on the comfort setting was not well controlled - lots of big up and down motions on the freeway. When I switched to the sport mode it tightened up very well. The only tradeoff was that you can feel the small bumps in the road. The normal position was in between. This is the first time I have had such a full load in the car. As I posted previously, I usually drive with the comfort setting- normally with one or two people and no luggage. So the adjustable setting was very useful. Merry Christmas to all.

My brother wanted exec pkg and 5 seater, he custom ordered and waited almost 6 months. His sticker was 95K, and he did opt out of the air suspension as the sales person suggested it was only an asset over 100 MPH. Was he told wrong?

?! what do you mean 5 seater with exec package? there is no such thing. the exec package is 4 seaters with massage. the 5 seat with RSES (dvd player) is only avaiable on the 600hl i believe

and i definitely disagree with the sales. i have only driven swb very few times, but i can definitely tell the difference between air suspension (softer) and springs/shocks

that's just me of course

Question. What is the real purpose of the "Hight High" button? Does the ride feel any different with it activated. I tried it on our 600 mile trip to Detroit and I could not detect any difference. However, one can definitely feel the difference between the sport and comfort modes. I kind of like the comfort mode.

i believe it raises the car a tiny bit for whatever reason (as if the car is not HIGH enough stock). i never bother with that button

I have used the "High" extensively on my previous LS430, and haven't had the need to use it on the LS460L yet. I believe it raises the car some, even if it is only 0.0001", it still helps psychologically. As in the Houston metropolitan area if you get caught in a heavy downpour; the streets flood often and quickly.

My brothers car has the right rear recline massage seat, but no work desk as he wanted room for 5 - he was told it was unavailable in the US and so he custom ordered the car. It has more amenities in the back seat than any of the 460L's I have seen on the 2 local dealers lots. He was offered, and declined the RSES.

do you have pictures of his car interior? the rear seats with the foot rest up? and also the massage controller? buttons on the rear armrest do not mean massage, it has its own controller. and as far as i know the rear massage seat is ONLY available in 4 seat configuration. it just does not exist with 5 seat configuration at all. it's not a matter of custom order or not

having reclinable rear seats doesn't mean having massage seats though. reclinable rear seats are available on a lot of ls460l

for example my ls460l is 2nd top of the line, it has pretty much everything in the rear including reclinable seats, but there is no massage seat / RSES

Gojirra99

Yes, other than no massager, the "regular" reclinable seat in other LS460L's does not recline nearly as much as the one in the executive package.

Also there is no ottoman to put your feet up in the non exec class. In my exec class, the place of the middle rear seat contains not only the work table, but the controls for the rear DVD player, the massage, the headphone storage and the buttons for moving the seats. The left rear seat along reclines, but not as far as the right rear, and of course no ottoman for the feet and no massage. Finally, to accomodate the ottoman, the front passenger seat moves forward and up to an extreme position so that no one can sit there - so it becomes a three passenger car.
