I don't understand what is new about those headlights, other than the new LED lights shown in the headlamp cluster (which looks pretty cool). The triple LED has already been in the LS600h and other Lexus cars, unless I missed something about them being different in the new LS. Even the Acura RLX will have these LED headlamps (5 per side, "more is more" philosophy? :D) so that is not what I am excited about the most. As we've seen a glimpse of the front of the car (almost 100% confirmed), I'm mostly excited about the rest of the car, including interior, sides, rear, and whatever new technology the LS will have. THAT is what I was hoping Lexus would talk about within the next several months as their German rivals have already started talking about technologies and what to expect in their flagships.

I love how they implemented the chrome surround, very fluid and sculpted, even more so than the LF-LC.

I prefer the (bluish) brightness of my previous LS430 HID headlights. Also, the high-beams aren't LED, so it looks strange with the high-beams on, a mixture of the pure white LED's, and yellow regular headlight highbeams. HBH |

You have to remeber that LED headlight tech has come a long way since the debut of the 2007 LS600h back in late 2006 and that tech was cutting edge back then. If you notice now on thenew Lexus Hybrids with LED headlights they have gone from three to two larger clusters, also Audi A8 and A7 have very bright LED headlights. Look for LED's to replace HID's as the upgrade low beam in the future for luxury cars, then as the tech ages it will trickle down to non luxury brands.
