[Bug@5speed(US)]

Since this is off topic, figured I would put this out here..

I was looking over at the subaru forum, NASIOC, and came across a thread regarding the forester and impreza to receive diesels in the european market.. That got me thinking, that maybe in a few years they will be available in the US, or at least as a EDM import..

So maybe a Germanlook Superbeetle with diesel power is not to far fetched..
Thoughts?

Just some random thinking going on these motors..
