    I would but first our diesel must be changed kasi ang dumi ng diesel dito... diesel dapat ntn like sa Europe. PLUS dapat diesel engines like the ones from BMW or BENZ not the old diesel engines that we are still using now madumi na maingay pa... its time for a change!

    If they did that then id be more than happy to switch.

    Aq i'll definitely buy all the Diesel counterpart of SUV's except the d4d hehe... How about if the displacement and performance are about the same but the price is about 5-10% more on its price would you buy it? :lurk:

    Ako oo pa rin, if only for diesel's inherent durability (lasts more than three times as long as gas engines before requiring a complete overhaul).

    Depende sa diesel engine at sa sasakyan mismo.

    But I usually prefer diesel over the gas version.

    It really depends on the car. If it were an Exped, a diesel is definitely a good option because of its cumbersome size and weight. I would certainly want decent consumption despite the measurements.

    As of now, only the Germans are offering economical diesels having good performance. BMW's 2-liter diesel is even slightly quicker than the gas version of the same displacement. Diesels are certainly evolving, in pursuit of less fossil fuel consumption and emissions.

    Well it's up to you... Maybe you can give SPECIFIC examples... Like if you want Diesel Expeds or Diesel Camrys or even Diesel Mazda 3s... Well I don't really mind because In Europe diesel is such a boom!!!

    i.e. I'd get the Hyundai Matrix diesel over the gas version, same goes with the Getz diesel, BMW 530d, etc... They perform at par with the gas engines already (the BMW 530d even outperform the Benz E320 if i recall it right). But kung Ferrari diesel, i think i'll pass on that first. :P

    On a Exped diesel or Suburban diesel, i'd get the gas versions due to the following reasons:
    - the American diesels in those cars arent that great
    - their displacement is so much bigger so the fuel consumption is just the same as a gas or it consumes even more possibly.
    - the gas engines already produce very good torque numbers.

    agreed.

    and we have a perfect candidate for that, the VW Jetta TDI (1.9L 4cyl Turbodiesel 6A) 35city and 42mpg highway.

    pero ngayon sa US, mas mahal pa sa highest octane ang Diesel.

    I will highly consider. The diesel engine has taken-off technically providing better driving comfort and acceptable emissions. So we should start selectively considering diesel over petrol-fed engines.

What if? ALL GAS-FED cars were given a DIESEL VERSION? Bibilhin niyo o hindi?
