4300K is standard OEM for most cars. Anything higher would lose light output, but more color. The blue-purple color you see is light being emitted through projector slots...

No, the higher the color temp, the bluer/purpler the light, (to a point). 4500K has the most light output I believe, after 5000K you start to lose effective light, but the color goes to a bluer/purple.
