Agreed.  I have heard/read the same thing.

I've passed a few cars lately with very bright lights that have a purple hue.  Must be them.

I have them in my car. They're xenon headlamps. Bright as hell. Great field of vision but annoying to the drivers in the opposite lane.  ;D

Sure, first the headlights, then taillights.  Next is the body kit and lower springs.  Save your money for 20's and tires, then a cold air intake and a fart-can muffler. [sm_devil]

LOL, no, I have no delusions about what my car is / can do.  LOL.   If i wanted a sports car , I would have just bought a used one and reconditioned/rebuilt  it.   In fact, I plan to do exactly that, should I ever get a good enough job to afford it (more like afford a house/garage and nice set of tools.   

The only other thing I'll 'upgrade' on this car would possibly be:
Stereo
Brakes

I actually wasn't aware that mixed parentage folks were using it to describe themselves. I've ALWAYS heard it in the derogatory sense when referring to a white guy who's trying a little too hard.

LOL, I didn't get down to number 6:

Some of these wasians often like to frequent asian markets and buy candy with name they cannot pronouce.

I have the Osram SilverStars in my car and bike.  They make a difference, but not an OMG difference.  For the increased illumination and cost, I'd buy them again.
