I want the rear tail lights!

But i wouldn't be surprised if this is a photo chop, kinda like how that one taiwanese company stole some of jerky's, canonid, and some others pics from here.

Just noticed. I wonder if the rear light change is to accomodate wider chinese license plate? then it won't affect us.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:PRC_Blue_Plate.jpg

If they come out with clear light in 07, I will be buying them
Looks like they don't get bluetooth. Audio controls are same as Canadian version. No TPMS. No Navi option.

The blinking side markers (placed behind the front fenders) you see on European and Japanese market autos is there because the relevant safety regulations call for it. US/Canadian law requires the side markers to be placed ahead of the front fenders. Our wrap-around turn signals are designed that way to meet the US/Canadian legal requirements. The non-blinking side marker that we have on the TL is not a requirement, and do not have to blink. (See examples below.)

Japanese and European version:


US/Canadian version:

Those taillights are hot. Turn signals on the mirrors look stupid and are just another damn bulb to replace. And who cares anyway?

I'm pretty sure those turn signal bulbs are LED, so I doubt you'll need to replace them.
