What do you say? (Sorry if it is a repost...)

 

this is good news for Europe. I'm also from europe and diesel is lot cheaper than unleaded gasoline and more efficient. This will be a hot seller in short time..

 

Naah... Diesel and Porsche dont go together well IMO...

 

It's a good alternative to the usual v6.

 

It is not the first Porsche with a Diesel....and here in europe (germany) you see a lot Audi TT or BMW 3-series cabrios with diesel engines. The first ones will be in feburay at the dealers and I think you must wait quickly one year or longer for one.

 

If you wanna drive cheaper by a VW...

I've been driving some Audi's with the V6 diesel and my conclusions are:
- good to drive on highways but not on nice curving roads
- no fun to drive, just bring you from point A to B
- put the radio to hide the (tractor) sound

Question of choice but on my side I never had fun driving diesel's

 

Diesel? yeks! I'm not a fan of it. It is slower than a gasoline engine and FRI287 was right when you drive on a highways it is not nice in curving roads.

 

i would get it for the mpg's and the pulling power for my track bike and car. that's why i was waiting for the q7 tDi.

 

I would have expected at least the V10 5liters tdi from the Touareg R10, which would have been a minimum sportif

 

Why not the 500 hp v12 tdi from q7

 

When you give me 150k€ I will buy one! My dad wanted also a $.2 V8 TDI Q7 but he hates the Q7!

 

Well... what can i say.. i'd buy it.
I got an 08 Cayenne and i got a Golf TDI among others but we're talking about Cayenne and Diesel so yea.. what can i say.. now i'm driving the Cayenne since the prices of gas dropped below 1.70 but before.. economy of a diesel was amazing.

 

not like you drive anything special yourself. so be quiet troll

 

cayenne diesel is not intended for US market for sure..

 

I've driven a couple of diesel cars and to be honest, their not as bad as most people think. I've driven a 530d, and it didnt sound like a tractor. It even handled like a petrol car. I'd understand that the older diesel cars would sound like that, but not these modern ones. And for bmw's, I read somewhere that the diesel version of their cars are even faster/more powerful than the gas equivalent.
