My 03 Evo had HIDs but I sold that in 06 and haven't had them since.

I do want them and will be getting the retrofit kit to do it right.

The other night I drove some family home after dinner in my aunt's Ford Edge. That thing is very nicely equipped. Big props to Ford in recent years.

It had HIDs. I noticed the difference of course due to a slight difference in color and the way they start up. However, I dropped everyone off at my aunt's house and immediately got in my car to head home so I paid close attention to the difference in what I could see.

Honestly, I was surprised at how not disappointed I was. The FR-S halogen projectors are not bad. The light cut off is very smooth and I can see well. The light could be a little brighter but I would not say they are bad in the least. I only feel that way because I WANT HIDs. I don't need them.
