Now, this is completely uneducated, so someone correct me if I'm wrong, but they are most likely dark when you pull out of the garage because the difference between the dark garage and the sunlight. Once they "adjust" to the light they untint. Again, a completely uneducated guess so it is very possible I'm wrong (you have the car and I don't after all), but it seems to me like a safety hazard to have them tint from darkness. Not only that but I can't quite grasp how that would even work. I'm thinking they are more like those self-tinting prescription glasses.
