headlights and rpm

how come i cant see that far with our HID compare to my CLS's HID? i know i can adjust it but since it s factor spec. it should be good... but i only can see about 1 car length ahead of me at night......

and i wanna know at 70mph my rpm is at 2.5k.. is that normal? cuz my CLS would be around 2k..i know gear ratio and stuff r different but i just wanna know if 2.5k is normal for 6speed coupe..

thanks a lot

Re: headlights and rpm

Yea, I’ve noticed that the HIDs aren’t the best in the business, probably because the HID bulbs are far recessed into the light housing, whereas the Acura CL has a much bigger and more forward reflector design. But the G does light up the road pretty well. I had a 328i and a CLK430 both of them had outstanding HIDs. I hope future Gs will adopt Bi-xenon projectors.

Just be glad you guys dont have a 1993-1996 Lincoln Mark 8, then you would be complaining about lighting.

Quite possibly the worst i have ever seen.
