Xenon costs 1650$ CAD (1000$USD)  What would be the benefit to have it added to the car?  Is it that useful?

thank you

Thomas

The benefit is increased illumination in front of you, and to some, a "cool" factor. Regardless of the problems they can cause other motorists, whether they are self-levelling, and so on, you have to ask yourself whether the illumination provided by the stock bulbs on your car is sufficient.

If you do most of your driving in a comparatively urban environment and you have good eyesight, it is likely that you do not actually need xenons for functional purposes.
