that's what? 540 nm is 398 lb-ft of torque...yikes! compared to 332 lb-ft for the c32...
helps u, not others....many in taiwan have complained how it was ruined not because it didn't, in fact it works great, but that other people hit it and becomes "unaligned"...anyway

Even if not this particular one, I'm really wondering about a diesel for our next car. Much better fuel mileage, no sacrifice in power, clean emissions on modern engines... Can't lose.

I think it'll be a few more years, but Diesels will break into the US market and become popular. They match our driving style well (not very high speeds but brisk acceleration and LOTS of torque), they're more efficient, and with the right fuel they pollute less than gas engined cars. They're not for everyone and I don't think they'll replace the gas engine completely but they definitely have a place in 50-70% of the cars driven today.
