Nice!, anybody sees or hears of an upgrade kit for our MM's then make sure to post where to get it, I can imagine how much the whole kit right now is from the dealer with the HID kit, controller/computer and camera, WOW!!!

Check all that apply :
1. Wow, neat !
2. Yeah, you need bells and whistles like that to justify why cars cost what houses used to cost.
3. Eh, more stuff to break.
4. Pie.

No one, retro fitting a system like that using BMW's stuff would cost more than probably an S/C kit.

This isn't some kit that someone can buy and put it on their car. This is a standard integrated feature on the current gen BMW 7-series car which is a $80k car.

This seems to only give benefit to the other drivers.

No thanks.

Amazing. Truely. Coming from someone who hate beemers.

Still won't buy a car that has triple the repair bills and double the visits.

Drivetrain (and now the adaptive headlights) are the only thing that interests me in these electronic monstrosities.

Yes causing having an adaptive system that automatically allows you to see as much as possible without blinding other drivers is totally benefiting other drivers and not the driver of a vehicle with this feature.

That's cute.

Just more gimmicky stuff to make people think they are better drivers when they are not.

And


Just more $$$$$$$ to replace.


No thank you.

Yes because I really want my headlights to go to the left and the right and not see what is right in front of me. Doesn't seem to smart from my point of view, pun intended.

More electronics, more problems.

Pass.

Did you watch the whole video? The low beams are still active and it's only the high beams that move to not glare other drivers.

High beams should not be on for on coming drivers.

The smarter the car, the dumber the driver.
