ouch! $1500 ??? are you saying that a large part of the price difference b/w the 323 and my 328 is because the 328 has Xenons?

BTW: this is my first car with Xenons and honestly I don't see a HUGE difference in terms of visibility at night ... they certainly look better, but I personally question the argument that Xenons are safer because they increase the visibility

any comments?

there is a HUGE difference, if you can't see it, then you're a bat

the HID lights up road markings that much better and sooner than halogens
