If BMW will ever make those God damn ugly LED lights I will sell my BMW and will never come back.
That's the most ugly thing I have ever seen. I see it on German roads every day and allways start laughing at those poor drivers.

You see quite a few here and IMHO it just looks wrong. As rodybmw wrote above, for me its Audi's attempt at using lights to create a unique identifier for its brand, like BMW has done with the angle-eyes and eye brows. In general like Audi's rear LED lights, but these front LEDS get a :thumbsdown: from me.

looks like it took them less than a day to design and build it.

I like the rear, but not the front.

Cadillac together with Hella has announced that it will be launching the world's first volume full-LED headlamp on its 2008 Cadillac Escalade Platinum edition.
Unlike rival luxury brand Lexus, which offers single projector LED lamps on its LS600h flagship, Cadillac's design uses the efficient diodes for the entire headlight assembly - indicators, low beam and high beam.

why BMW so late in designing and building this
they had 1 done last year with the Mille Miglia Coupe Concept but this 1 is a bad design compare to Audi 1

Really? most seem to not like the Audi LED eyebrows... I rather like them. I see them all the time on the A6s and there was an R8 following me a few weeks back and I thought it looked rather nice.
I LIKE THEM!
I LIKE THEM!

Those LS headlights are hideous. The triple projectors looks stupid.

Wait a minute... how can Caddy say they're offering the world's first volume full-LED headlamp yet they says it'll ONLY be on the Escalade Platinum edition????? so the non-platinum editions wont get these headlights right???
Thats the same thing as the Lexus LS!!!! they're only offering it on 1 edition of the LS... the 600h just like Caddy... only offering it on their bling bling RAP edition.
