The S4 looks like every other 80s tail light ever invented, the S5 looks a little more 'modern' (although, round lights have been around forever and a day). I'd have to say that the only reason people like the S4's more is for the sake of arguement or they're mad cuz they can't afford them.

I like S4 more when painted to match the car only. I think you may just have to have an old school appeal kind of taste.
Personally I would not pay more then 120 for a mint set of S5 tails.

no the s5's just look too rounded out in the back because of the tails. they make it look like a porsche s4's make it more flat and even like it should look. the circle lights just dont look good on an rx7 it doesnt match their persona.

(As does the general public, thus the going rate is only $150 more than a set of s4!)
But regardless, the S4 lights make it look like a toyota/honda/every other late 80s econobox.

i dont know i think mazda was just trying to jump the gun and beat other companys to it and the whole point to sound tails was to look newer and more flashy but now there everywhere and s4's are more novel. my personal opinion
btw it also depends on car color, white loofs better with s5's cuz i dont think s4's flow that well with it.

Just read my custom title... I love the s4 tails!! But that's just me.
Basically, just like anything, s5 tails are only worth what someone is willing to pay for them.

think what you want, but i think the s4's look better. thats my opinion, you dont need to take it.
to the poster, i honestly think tinted s4 tails look best on almost any color or year.

The last 3 sets I had , I flipped for about $160 a set, including the plate holder. How easy it is to turn $32( $2 junkyard entrance fee+ $30 used taillight costs) into $160, not bad for 15 minutes of work eh?
