Nope Xenon with High beem assist.
PS) High beem assist has now changed to the latest system.

They have NOT changed!!!! they look just like the old ones.

I do hope the "High beem assist" has changed to the new system.

So if you guys who have the 2012 model want to update looks, it's just front grill rear lights end ofd.
In the US, high beam assist is bundled with the new LED headlights and not included without them.

Would you mind posting pics of your headlights? I am curious if they are same as 2013, or similar but not same.

It's on an email, but it looks exactly the same as the old units.

So the turn signal LEDs are embedded in a white matrix at the edges.

So what road is that? In case I am ever out there, I would like to give it a run. We have some in West Texas with curves. So I think you said some guy in a E60 M5 got 215 on that road?

Stealth? Stealth? Tarmacs in the US? That road looks like it would be pretty damn bumpy.

I'm thinking of doing a specialty plate with 4 letters or numbers. What do you guys think of

1. S63U
2. V8TT
3. F10M
4. M5V8

Do you guys like any of these? If not, do you have any suggestions? thanks
