Default Xenon Lights help

Looking to purchase my first GS430 this weekend. How does one determine if the car has Xenon lights or was this a standard option on a 2001 GS430? Please advise guys!

Thanks for the help!!

not 100% sure on your particular car, but you can just look at the headlight lenses on the front bottom. it should say d2r on the lense which means it uses d2r HID bulbs. if it says "9006", it's halogen.

another good sign you have HID is when you first start your car, the auto leveling motor goes on which makes your headlight beam goes up and then down to proper position.
