I'd buy a diesel version if it was available in the US.
95mpg is fabulous.


I was looking them over at the local Mercedes dealership here. The turbo
diesel sits on the back axle and it's a rear wheel drive. 6 speed stick or
paddle shift. It's a cool little car. I was pricing one of the convertible
models with leather seats, A/C, power windows etc.... 23K Cdn.


I think that's about $3,247 US.

It's the fuel and manoeuvrability aspect for in city driving that really
caught my interest.


It's the inability to run at normal road speeds for long that caught my
attention.
