In germany, all the car companies are nuts about direct injection diesel angines (TDI): every manufacturer is coming out with real kick *** diesel engines.
BMW just introduced a 330d with a 3 liter TDI that puts out alot of torque and HP and has great milage. Merceses just recently introduced a real cool E320 CDI that produces 350 lb ft and 200HP and here's the best: VW is working on a V10 TDI that is going to put out more than 300HP and over 500 lb ft (!!!!!!). I am sure this engine will be powering the A8 soon!

In europe you can buy the A4 with a 2.5l V6 TDI that has really impressive numbers (150 HP, 300 lb ft) and very low fuel consumption. If that car was offered here in the states, there is no question that I would have bought it instad of my 99.5 1.8TQ

Now I was just curious if I am the only one here on the forum who is so enthusiastic about TDI technology or if anyone shares this passion with me?

I will take the 2.5TDI Quattro Avant if there's any available. Really cool diesel engines, indeed!

Since my Avant would be my road trip car....yup I'd want Diesel!! (and chip like Nial!!)

I plan to get an S4 Avant, but on a car that I did not intend to take to the track so much I would definitely get TDI.
