We need those projectors..
I have an i3 and I can confirm that the color and brightness are not on par with my F80 LED lights with NGHB. I can say it is like night and day different. The throw on the i3 does seem to be further on the low beams at low speeds but once the NGHB kicks in after 25mph (I had it coded to a lower speed limit than the EU version) the road becomes so lit, its just amazing.

The i3's LED light output is a bit more yellow in color, whiter than 4300K Xeons, maybe 4700K? The F80's LED system seems to be right at 5000k. Pure white and just right IMO.
