BMW already has laser headlights with the i8 so it's only a matter of time before laser technology trickles down to the rest of the models.

do you really think bmw is going to offer this standard.. halogen will always be standard on bmws and 900 for xenon and 1900 for led and probably 5000 for Laser

Well if they can make the technology cheaper I don't see why not?

The current LED angels are more appealing IMO

Don't like how these look.

Damasconian · 01-06-2015, 09:35 AM

I like the rear better than the front, but dang that looks good.

jayyp · 01-06-2015, 09:37 AM

Makes my F80 look old now..

M3 Adjuster · 01-06-2015, 09:40 AM

Badass. LCI as an option for the win.

" BMW M GmbH will be launching a production model featuring OLED technology in the near future. "

luvmybluesbb · 01-06-2015, 09:41 AM

Like the front lights more than the back...would love it on my car!

Adem1534 · 01-06-2015, 09:42 AM

I bet these will be available upon the launch of the M2, with LEDs being standard, and these being an option.

This is great for everyone. I bet LEDs are standard, at least for M models after this.

GOLFFRR · 01-06-2015, 09:42 AM

like I stated in all the other threads, YES PLEASE! I think these would be very cool addition

No worries, you've already got your car.

OneRib · 01-06-2015, 09:45 AM

Looks like option for 7 series and next gen 5/6 series. 3/4 series probably won't see this until the LCI of the next gen platform. So probably 2 leases away for me.

Agree they will just start to make LED standard and charge for the laser package.

DOT is our biggest obstacle to some of the coolest features.

greekcs · 01-06-2015, 09:46 AM

I'm still acclimating to LED headlights.

Vervain · 01-06-2015, 09:51 AM

Reading about the various functions of these lights is fascinating! Finally lights worth paying for.

And cool white metallic looks awesome..

BMWPower06 · 01-06-2015, 09:51 AM

wow, I love it!

In all my wisdom I agree. I could see Xenons becoming standard on some models but no way in hell is BMW going to offer LED as standard, especially since people are paying $1,900 for it as an option right now.

F82speed · 01-06-2015, 10:07 AM

Like these a lot and they're a huge step up functionally. I would think with the DOT approval that must exist for the i8 now, that wouldn't be a large obstacle in bringing these to market in other platforms, no?

hyperboost · 01-06-2015, 10:08 AM

these look sick!!!! too bad not approved for the US yet.

RingMeister01 · 01-06-2015, 10:08 AM

Maybe MY '17? Seems to close to the '16 production date to receive DOT approvals.

AlpineE92M3 · 01-06-2015, 10:10 AM

I'm guessing these are gonna be available for the LCi in a couple years. But as a $5k+option.
