2011 A8 lights?

From the looks of it, two sets of headlights are shown in various press shots, what ones are the production ones? I prefer the less cluttered one. Could one be an option? I like the one with the more common "projector" style with the LED's not the overly cluttered LED Mess of the other one.

1. are the xenon ones (standard)
2. are full LED ones

The full LED headlights will be available later on (~ end of 2010) as an option.

The Xenon ones look very good, agree.
FULL LEDs are the future tho. technically they are awesome.
photos don`t always tell the truth, they probably will look better in reality.

I think the second photo of the all-LED headlamps is just a journos photoshop or similar. To get a better idea of all-LED headlamps, take a look at the Audi R8 with the V10 engine - that has the all-LEDs as standard, and they do look very good actually.

Unfortunately i do no think so. Here is a picture taken by the website Autoblog, and there are more live photo's out there from autoshows etc that support the LED lights look as is. I agree the R8 V-10 lights look amazing! These not so much

Ohhh - if they are the genuine article - then they are rather vomit inducing . . . .
