BMW delivers the first versions of its new i8 sports car with laser light technology earlier than expected, beating Audi to the punch
The laser light turf war raging between BMW and Audi appears to have taken one final, decisive twist.

At an exclusive ceremony in Munich yesterday evening, BMW handed over keys to the first eight i8 customers, and in doing so became the first manufacturer in the world to launch a production car featuring laser-powered headlights.

I don't know why they making such a big fuss over lights!!! If it was a new type of engine technology then sure but only light technology which is changing so much every year soon this laser lighting will become old news!
 
Audi have retaliated by saying they have the fastest car with Laser Lights. Its kind of getting tedious now.
 
Audi is the first car in the world with steering wheel and four rings badge in the same time:)
