The regular halogen headlights on my 128i (E88) may not look as cool but are 10x better on a country road.

That's pretty much my feeling. I suspect many forum members live in urban areas and rarely drive on pitch black roads that nonetheless are not deserted enough to use high beams.
I realized that the xenon on my wife's TSX has better range, so I adjusted mine to have about the same angle with respect to the road. It works much better now, and so far I've never gotten a flash from the oncoming traffic.
