Very hard to justify the diesel without an Eco credit. Will take a few years to recoup the $2100 up charge over the 28i. The engine really doesn't seem special compared to the engine in the diesel GLK250 with 200hp/369ft lbs. The torque here (which is usually a good reason for a diesel) is only 280, 20 above the 28i. It had better get at least 42mpg hwy with those specs.
