So LED taillights were standard on the O6-08 ISx50's?

Si. But I think they are mixed in with some non-LED's or some funky reflectors that blur them. Never could get that cleared up here on the board.

Can't get enough of it at night when I am following one.

I dunno about you guys but when I go out with a group of friends, at times I would ask my friend to drive my car so I can drive his just so I can see my car rolling. Always makes me feel warm and happy inside.

Yes! But I haven't had the nerve yet to trust someone else to drive my car. I was thinking of asking my dad to do it on the way to a family dinner or something. But such a move would be further evidence to commit me to the car nut farm.

goto a CL meet, you can trust other CL members with your car since they also drive the same car
