They said "this car eats pavement for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, 
except dinner may be hampered by very poor lighting"(or something to 
that effect.)

Kneale is right though...I don't remember why we replaced one of the 
headlights in the old 5000, but we did.  The difference was 
astounding.

Similarly, I've put quite a few miles on my euros, and they're 
starting to look 'dim'.

Couple of years ago, it was $150-200 for US per side, $300+ for euros?
