The CCFL Halo's are old news. Audi's DRLs / city lights are a string of white LEDs that look totally bad a$$ even in day time. The white LEDs also last a long time.

Nope, don't like the Audi lights. The halos look like eyes......just what the face of a car needs.....although I'd settle for them being LEDs

Those wheels look good with the Brembo package. I'd like to see them on a GB car, but black does look mean. I'd still do the HIDs though.

Guys, don't speculate on the price of the Brembo package until the info comes out. It won't be a very expensive option, remember, this car has to be competitive, and the SS comes with Brembo's standard.

The Audi DRL's look like eyelashes. The Halo's look like glasses.





They look MUCH better at dusk and farther away. The first time I saw them it changed my opinion of them.
The CCFL Halo's might be better looking to some, but they're technically inferior to the LED DRL's. The Germans are all about engineering superiority.

That's what I was thinking, looks like a ripoff of the FR500s.

So are the Brembo Wheels black chrome or regular chrome? I can't tell from the pics due to my crappy work monitor.

The more I look at them, the more I like them on black. I told myself no black car, but this is getting appealing.

I think they'll look good on Dark Grey too.

True. I wouldn't get one that color, we have a Fusion in grey and I've just had 2 silver/grey cars myself.

I don't think they'll work on the reds and yellows though. I think I'd want a silver or the luster nickel like the 2010 wheels were.

I think they'll look good on the reds and Yellow Blaze actually. The reds will look good because of the Brembo font in red on the calipers.
