Today I was at a stop light in Pasadena, CA and saw the new/latest Audi A4 making a left turn and low and behold it has the progressive red turn signals which was so cool to look at. On the taillight assembly, the light of the turn signal starts from the middle of the trunk area and progresses toward the outside/rear fenders.

Lexus should have kept the feature for the U.S. market. Now the A4 and Mustang have a cool feature the RX could have had and be one of the few who push the envelop instead of staying with tradition...oh well.

Trexus our Vossen R8 V-10 has it too.. I was told they changed the outright of the rear light so they could offer this cool look and it seems safer as well.

I've seen the Lexus version in Japan and it's awesome.

USA could surely find a way to do it but I guess they figure it's not worth the cost. Shame.
