If it works in the Commodore, they will we see it in the G8 or the Park Avenue?
or even.... gasp, the Camaro?

Maybe other way around, If it works in the G8 and is wanted that gives Holden reason enough to do it, Either way they will be testing it out from go to wo.If it works in the Commodore, they will we see it in the G8 or the Park Avenue?

Agreed - I'd much rather see a V6 diesel in the Commodore/G8 instead of the Duramax...It would work great, if a little heavy, as a high performance engine in cars but the new 2.9L V6 diesel coming out of Europe would be a better match for most people and offer much better fuel economy I would guess. Depends on your priorities. I'd love a G8 with the 2.9L.
...however, the 4.5 liter Duramax would be nice in a performance variant, if they were so inclined!The success of the Audi R8 TDI will determine if we get a performance car with a duramax. I for one think it would be awesome. Better mileage and tons more potential for tuning ect.
Don't worry gasoline will soon catch up to diesel prices.With diesel fuel close to $4.50 I don't see no benefit. So what I will get 35mpg in my G8 for example and pay high diesel fuel costs. Yup that saves me money. With more diesels on the road it will give oil companies an incentive to raise diesel prices even more.
Yeah, it will and Diesel will also go up. Diesel fuel use to be less expensive than gasoline. What happened?Don't worry gasoline will soon catch up to diesel prices.
Who needs a diesel powered car in the Middle East? They pay 45 cents a gallon for gasoline.Might be good for HSV and LWB models of holden to export into Europe and the middle east with this TD?.
They say it's what is missing maybe right now?.
Demand in europe for diesel is through the roof, there isn't enough global capacity to satisfy demand. If our refineries (which don't make all that much diesel to begin with) can get a hefty price in europe, guess where that tanker is going?Yeah, it will and Diesel will also go up.
