Dropped the ZHP off at the shop to have the Canadian exhaust drilled out. Tonight I drove the X3 for the first time in what feels like ages. Holy crap the adaptive lighting blows the E46 out of the water.

I made the same mistake of test driving a newer BMW (340i with adaptive suspension and M-sport brakes etc) over the weekend. Almost all aspects blew the E46 out of the water.Quote:

I still prefer the way older cars drive, it way just funny to see how much more movement the newer headlights have (especially since the X3 used the Bosch E46 projector). More specifically, it allows for single light movement for slight wheel turns.Quote:
