Blue HID = Bluish light output (Similar to Acura/BMW)
Purple HID = Purplish light output (Only on aftermarket systems)

8000K
6000K = Color temperature and has nothing to do with brightness.
4300K

6000K is very blue, while 4300K is pure white.

For more into on color temperature and a chart, search the internet.

I've got the Xenon headlights. I got them for $30. They give of the blue tint and are remarkable for night driving. Plus they give your headlamps a blue tint during the day when there turned off.
