Wally - Thanks. Just wanted to be sure that I was not considering a new (aka Mark 1 Mod 1) system!

Not quite;
you are talking about Active Curve ILLUMINATION, not Active Curve System
Active Curve System is BRAND NEW for the 2013 GL and has never been offered on any previous GL's before.

Active Curve System works with the suspension to help eliminate body roll
