When it comes out and some start getting totaled or rear ended and those headlights start showing up on Ebay... I'm SOO retrofitting those!... Just remember when you do see it done on the street, come back to this thread look at the date and know, THIS is where the idea came from

Very reminiscent of the Xenon pattern that my X5 threw. Interesting.

While we are on the topic of headlights I must say that the high-beams (on the 460) are a big disappointment.

If you're basing your comments on looking at the car parked, I'd certainly agree with you, they're quite similar.

If you base your comments on the driving experience, however, there we'd have a disagreement.

Well I for one think both cars are quite excellent in their exterior looks. From my brief test drive at ToL, I agree the LS 600h L is a beast = more powerful

you should be looking at the headlights when it's in action, not when it's shut off

Ling takes great pics.
I think the best photographs I see on mbworld.org are from him.

That's because you really can't screw up xenon patterns
Although I want to say Lexus external lighting is perfect, I think that credit goes to BMW from their LED tube-style rear lights to the angel eyes + xenon highbeams.
