Anyone know more about VW blue sport convertible diesel ?
They say it is a VW boxter and reminescent of the good old 914.
When is it coming to US and how much ?

I was reading an article about how that diesel motor may be going into the Porsche Boxster in 2010/11.
That’s... well... I’m not sure just what that is.

its probably not coming to the US regardless of anything they say.

Not the Diesel anyway. We will probably get stuck with a couple g@sser engines

yep.i'll take one too.nope no way in hell is that coming here.

I can see it coming here, not in huge numbers or anything though, and they'll probably lose money selling them. It'd be more like a way to get people into the showroom, and that VW "cares" about selling fuel efficient cars that can still be fun to drive unlike the Japanese hybrids (the old Insight notwithstanding)
