I have the same issue. I have the Launch Edition that states it has bi-Xenons on the sticker however they looked like Halogen high beams to me.
When I had a friend get out and look at teh high beams he had said that they do look like Xenons from the outside though. Have a look yourself at night.

I have Bi Xenon on my sl 500, the way you can tell you have them:
have someone stand in front of by the lights and listen for a click noise when brights are engaged. or go on a dark country road and turn them on it should look like daytime! hope that helps
