Default Bmw adaptive Headlamps

Does the 2008 525i have adaptive Xenon headlamps as standard? Or is it standard on the 530i? Replies would be greatly appreciated.

It is an option on both models. I believe that AHL came with the "Premium Package."

Nope. 2008 is 528. 528 has xenon as an option (all xenons in US are adaptives). And there's no 530 in 2008 either.

Default Thank you.

Thanks guys you were right. There is a 528i with the adaptive xenons. I like the facelift version of the E60. Looks really cool.

Incorrect. That is self leveling. All xenons are required to have self leveling in US. Moving left and right is adaptive.
