Yes, some people call them corona lights, they look great at night.

Hi,
the eyebrows do light up, but only a tiny little bit. So if it is really dark you will be able to see a diffuse lighting above the angeleyes, but e.g. in daylight you won’t see it at all.

The only thing I want to know is. . . do the turn signals blink yellow? If they blink red, I’m going to pass. I HATE red turn signals.

This design is somewhat disappointing… This car looks like the current 3 Series E90. The front grille is not aggressive enough, the headlights are somewhat soft, giving the car a sleepy image as opposed to the sharp image that the 5 GT gives. (maybe it’s due to the downward curve down to the indicators of this new 5). Rear also resembles the E90 – don’t know why thy would do that as the butt of the E90 and rear lights have been heavily criticised. The front of the car seems like a swolen head????

Interior is very nice though.

It looks like the ‘irises’ are clear rings illuminated from the bottom (probably LEDs), but the headlamps are still HID bulbs. Signal lights definitely LED — but oddly lensed.

Btw, what’s a “live photo”? :) Is it a real-time thing?

Those rings are LED ?If so that is cool, i thought they did not include any more LED stuff in the design.
