[@CAESARbonds]

ideal james bond car. fast, and silent on demand, and for james bond with real lasers to roast some villains ;)

[@frankiefromflorida]

I want that car.

[@mrgee325]

I have an I8 with the laser light upgrade but they don't seem to be adaptive. I have no cornering or variable light distribution. Please tell me they can do this and it wasn't a waste of money.

[@fredosmum3846]

mrgee325 what do u work as?

[@alexanderchatt7873]

vollll geiiiiiiiiiiilooooooooo leudetz i love you

[@TuddecBMW]

Dammit. Why do the lasers kick in only with the auto hi-beam option, I had hoped you could flash them to get dumb people who drive 20 under the limit in the fast lane out of your way...

20/14 BMW I8 BY NIGHT BMW LASERLIGHT AND SELECTIVE BEAM CASTEL

[@safadsgdshg]

Hp?

[@reenoud]

God no.... if that car hits a bumb everyone the opposite lain is blinded.. already hate those people with HID high beams in there stuppid m3's blinding me all day long.

[@EricRuzz]

did you even listen what the guy was saying? they'll be using the on coming traffic system which does not blind the opposing car

[@reenoud]

EricRuzz i know but the lights wont be able to keep up with bumbs and gaps in the road. So meaning if that cars drives on a bad road the traffic comming the other way will see the lights going up and down all cars have this problem only makes it worse if they use utra bright lights/lasers

[@babybirdhome]

Remy van den Nouweland No, the laser lights are only used for the second stage of the high beams. They aren't used for stage one high beams or low beams.

[@thej065]

Auto assisted high-low beam??? Come on, the matrix headlights on the Audi A8 2015 can do a lot more than that. Also, the limited number of light variations on the headlight design will not be sufficient to cover all road conditions.

[@grabir01]

Camera based? What is replacement costs when they break ? Yikes !!

[@christopherrose4970]

expensive. BMW is at the forefront of many new technologies though. As supply goes up, cost will go down. Just takes one innovative company to have the stones to try it first. then everyone will copy.

[@babybirdhome]

Well, literally very little. The laser just turns on and off-- exactly the same as in a CD player that costs less than a CD. The camera is just a simple camera, not a 4K hi-definition camera. Those come on every cell phone made in the past 5 years, even the cheap throw-away ones, as well as on disposable digital cameras sold in drug stores and on kids keychain pendants, so again, very cheap. Buying these from BMW in a form compatible with their headlight system? Not cheap. But then nobody buys a new top of the line BMW because they're cheap cars, so it's just economies of scale and market forces at play. All of the components themselves are basically already at commodity-level prices though, so there's literally nothing holding any manufacturer back from doing the same thing for very little actual cost.

Wow

[@Alanstarrful]

This car is so fucking sexy give it 550 horse power twin turbo engine I'll buy , without all that it's still good
