Because GP Thunder didn't make em? :P

That, and at 3000K, the color differentiation when the headlights are on isn't that far off.

just get them!! Differences are negligible. they made V2's for the 7500k and 8500k because they are in really high demand (i think its just a marketing gimmick)

with 3000k's there wont be much difference if they made a V2 other than it being more or less yellow (they'll still be 35w so brightness is the same).

Correct. The only reason they made V2's for the other ones (8500 and 7500) is because of the loss of color when the headlights were on, making the AE's appear more yellow/less intense.

Sorry if my original post was too complex for the OP to understand.
