This line, "the tail lights and turn indicators are powered by neon tubes that offer quicker activation than standard lightbulbs and are expected to last for the life of the vehicle" is found in countless articles about the Z8, which leads me to believe this was in a BMW NA press release.
Has anyone seen this release or no where I can get a copy of it?
Following a suggestion by Andrew i checked "the book" and to my surprise I couldn't find it in there. Perhaps I missed it there?
Frankly, it has been repeated by so many other journalists I suspect it was in press materials or a press briefing regarding the Z8.
Help finding the source would be greatly appreciated! BMW is claiming they never represented these lights would last longer than regular lights and if I can find they are the source of this statement that would be super helpful!
