I don't get why the 4 series gets them but the 3 doesn't. It's like if I want a practical doors I have to have crap headlights.

All the options put lease prices up more than having standard spec
1. You pay for the in the 4-series, it's factored into MSRP lol

2. It's not xenons that are expensive, it's the projector housing and optics that add cost.

I agree that all BMW's should have at least xenons but there is still a cost saving to be had for many buyers who simply don't care... it's better business sense. Of course BMW has genius financial analysts to figure all this shit out, and the result is what we see today
