Mercedes showcased a functional triturbo diesel SLK320 CDI concept in 2005. They just didn't pursue the idea because there was no market acceptance at the time. Will be interesting to see how the reactions will be this time with BMW.

I'm very excited about this and would love to see it in the X3 and X5 as well.

I sure hope autospies2 can figure out that the fuel pump that's causing problems isn't from BMW but from an independent supplier. Most major components in many automobiles have always been from external suppliers.
