Celica Headights

Has anyone else notice that the headlights on the new celica's are really bright? Not HID bright, but sort of blinding to on comin driver. Anyone know why this is? Is it the projector headlights?

maybe the celica you were looking at had 100 watt xenons........or....... if its for all toyotas, might just be the way their bulbs are aimed

Those are projector lights, they look sweet when you put HID bulbs in them. I want them.

low beams are projectors
high beams are not projectors

its all in how you focus the light beam/pattern

I've also noticed that, but I think that they're only blinding when the celica is going over a bump in the road, and momentarily the headlights are pointing a little higher than they usually do. I think the way they are aimed, if your car points a little bit higher, they will blind people.
