    • I'll put my two cents in and give my opinion, just on those question I know a little bit about: 1, 2.  I think only somebody who has driven both cars can give an answer on that.  Supposedly 460's with air suspension are smoother to drive than those without but that might be entirely subjective.  3.  If you ever have occasion to remove a front wheel or just see it removed, notice that most of the aforementioned control arms etc. of the front suspension are relatively easy to access.  Many of the components are located such that you might be able to change them out yourself which will save you a whole lot of money.  Those bushings seem to be prone to failure anytime after the odo hits 6 digits, but good quality replacements (Moog, Mevotech) can be had far cheaper than an OEM set (that goes for over a thousand bucks). As for the air suspension, near as i can tell its service life seems around the same length as the aforementioned suspension bushings.  It's a pneumatic system, and like all pneumatic systems, the question of repair is not if but when. I haven't owned a car with it but others that do, can really have issues getting it repaired when some component breaks (just one air shock is over $1,000 for OEM).  When shopping for my 2017 LS 460 I decided to deliberately avoid those with air suspension for that reason.
