I know, I would have loved to order it as an option too. I think BMW want to keep LED technology (for the time being at least) for the more premium end of the market segment, such as 4/5/6 series.

Most of the things i've heard about LED lights is that they are not very good as main lights?

It would mean they have xenons as standard (like on 4-5-6 series) whick would make for a higher base price for the 2 series.

Only on the M235i (like on the M135i) but not on the diesel and lower engine petrol cars.

Today i went to go check out the M235i and i noticed a 435i with Full LED headlights, i wish they would brought this option over to M235i as well. the Full LED looks nice from the brief demo i got.

What do you guys think would they bring the Full LED option in 2015 MY?

They also use less power, last longer, have more natural coloring and are much cheaper (not that BMW passes that on).

Halogen, Xenon, LED, Laser... so many lighting options

Now even a Toyota Corolla has LED Headlight as STANDARD Equipment.... BMW should offer that now... let alone MINI COOPER now has LED Headlight and Foglight as an option instead of Xenon.
