i def agree with you that the xenon's are by far cooler looking and brighter, but the fact of the matter is that we are stuck with the halogen's and by switching the bulbs in there with some piaa bulbs like in the link below will make that crisp white color instead of the yellowish color that it has now... it's not that annoying blue/ purple crap that you see on the ghetto rides though.. it's just bright white.. i think that putting these bulbs in the hi's, lo's and fog's would make the car look alot better at night... and I wanna look into replacing those 3 daytime running lights with led's.. they are also a yellow color..

I definitely would not hesitate to get Xenon on my next car. A little more research before the purchase would help in this case. I thought the Premium comes with the Xenon originally, the PP didn't even mention about the light or I overlooked..

Anyway it's too late now.

Actually, a few posts back someone stated that neither of them come standard with Xenons.

Just go to the Lexus and MB website and build a car. They both require a package to get the Xenon lights. Dealers may stock more cars with Xenon lights then not. I have two cousins with a 2006 & 2007 Lexus IS with no Xenon lights.

You need to step up to premium pack 2 to get Xenons on the C300. Go to carsdirect.com or mbusa.com. And it is not like every C300 comes loaded with pp2. I have seen plenty of online inventory that doesn't have pp2.

In fact, bi-xenons are an option on the E-series, the 528, and the A6.

I think those are projector headlights.
