LED's are not going away any time soon. Expect to see them as the primary lighting eventually

i understand it will be used as primary lighting soon, but ditch the audi style swooshes and randomly designed LED running lights. i think any SMD, LED, CCFL, halo tech is tacky

Front and interior look superb. Maybe the back half will grow on me, but as of right now, it reminds me of something you'd see for the DTS market.
Looking forward to seeing more pictures of it.

I think that is going to be around for a long time. Makes side lighting a lot easier as far as I can tell, less of a need for reflectors.

And less power use, and more durable, etc etc.
Take a look at other consumer lighting stuff.
Holiday lights?
Flashlights?
Regular light bulbs?
LCD screen light sources?
All that stuff is going or has gone LED.

True, power requirements go down as does heat, plus LED usually has a longer burn time than an incandescent bulb.

Audi, Cadillac, and I believe Lincoln use LEDs for headlights already. Not just accents, actual lighting.

V-Sport is to leverage the V branding to give people cool stuff of a V car without the actual cost or equipment of the V. BMW and Benz started the M and AMG packages for regular trim vehicles, as is Audi with the S-line stuff, Lexus has the F-spec packages for cars, and Infiniti with the IPL stuff.
