160 mpg diesel car

two euro models available, 2cyl gets 164 mpg 0-60 time of 20 secs., 3 cyl gets 91 mpg, with a 9 second 0-60 time.

great idea....but americans are too obsessed with power to have 10+ second 0-60 times..........they would rather whine about the fuel costs.....

yep id rather refinance my truck every time i fill up and have the ability to stomp the **** outa some ricer than save on a little bit of fuel. (in a whining tone) now when are they gonna lower the prices?

i wonder if those cars come with the flip-up floorboards

That is a fantastic idea. But I find myself asking this question: If I knew a collision was imminent, what would I rather be looking at, a little bubble on four wheels coming at me or looking up at a psd with a full body on frame construction pulling a 5th wheel camper about to squish me Now if someone could figure out how to get that kind of mpg's out of our psd's

Great idea...... But I'd be scared to drive something like that! I can't even handle riding in a car as it is!

im with you banshee, i do not like small cars. if everybody drove them, then yes, but i dont want to be the smallest guy on the road, to many idiots out there.
i think a motorcycle would be great too, but same reason, i dont feel safe in or on something that is so small with traffic the way it is.
my wife has a small car, i feel very uncomfortable when in it, partly because my head is smashed against the headliner (im 6'3"), kinda feel like a clown in a clown car when im in it.....
