Thanks for posting this. Now I understand why the LED lights have a reflector.
I personally think the Xenon lights look better, but LED is probably the way to go.... I think. |

Not worth $1,900, not even close to it. All the adaptive features are already available with xenons, they provide identical coverage. The rings around the lamps are also the same. Unless you are standing 2 ft in front of your front bumper at day time you can't really see the difference. At night you can, but then who is going to really care about that? I guess some people do.

if bmw is going to charge a premium to get LED lights, it should be all-encompassing and include the tail lights as well
having said that i'm most definitely going to get the LED package just b/c i'm a sucker for LED lights |

LEDs
Same here. Will update the tails when they undoubtedly change them for the LCI, like I did on my E46 & E92.
