Default ?? ls460L air suspension

do all "L" come with air suspension? also how do you differ between the ones with and without air?

I think it's still an option for the LS460L.
The easiest way is to look for the switch below for adjusting the suspension (sport, normal and comfort) which is absent in a non-air suspension LS :

That's the quickest telltale sign, other than checking the invoice anyway...

GS here in N.America has AVS(Adaptive Variable Suspension), not to be confused with the AIR SUSPENSION of the LS though ...

when you are getting the ls, you will learn all the options fast. trust me, it's nothing close to as complicated as mb or bmw

and yes, AVS is nothing like air suspension. like i said, i don't think gs has air option at all. if anything, it's the SC

Yes, I think GS does not have air suspension as an option anywhere in the world ...
