Ive been looking on this site for the last three months or so, just reading the forums. However after reading this thread, I feel forced to finally join. A deisel camaro would be something that I would buy in a heartbeat. Unfourtunatly it is not a reality, because the American companies seem to have some kind of resistance from bringing their small deisel engines over here to the states. I come from a deisel family. My father drives an 89 jetta (55 mpg highway) an my mother drives an 04 passat station wagon (50 mpg highway doing 65 with ac on) both deisel. I personaly drive a 1990 isuzu trooper gas, but I would make the conversion to deisel in a heart beat. Believe it or not, as the mph numbers show above, the epa ratings are actually lower than real time mileage in deisels. Not to mention the loads of torque that these engines come with. Also this car probubly would not sell with a deisel, bottem line is the american consumer just isnt ready for a mainstream deisel car yet. Too bad, because I am.
