you want some air info so here goes...
i have installed air on 2 gs lexus cars. one air cans and one air struts. the air cans go in easy, bolt in, and ride like shit.... the air struts ride decent are slow and have no travel basically... not even close to getting as low as hydraulics and very pricey.
i have never done any hydros on a lexus but have done hydros on strut cars and let me tell you before hydroholics it was well worth it but now that there is a company specializing in lowered vehicles it is a no brainer. on trucks i am all about air or any spindle control arm car but if it is a strut car there is no way i would do anything but hydraulics and hydroholics makes it very easy!
i am not affiliated with hydrohaulics this is purely my opinion from years of custom cars and custom suspension builds

The green Lexus GS300 in ART OF NOIZE had an air setup in it prior to me putting hydraulics in it. He had to modify the kit to get it to lay lower on 20's and in return only got about 3 inches of lift. GS's can get about 10 inches of lift without tearing up bushings or ball joints.
