Diesel Comparison

Looking at all the photo's it looks good to me. Petrol 50i 4.4L V8 Twin Turbo - 330kw/650nm - 0/100km's, 5.0 Sec's - 10.5L per 100km's.
Diesel M50d 6Cyl. Triple stage turbo - 280kw/740nm - 0/100km's, 5.3 Sec's - 6.7L per 100km's - 50kw's less power but nearly 100 more nm's of torque than V8 and big difference in fuel consumption. Who knows what Motors they will have? Usually the States have the bigger Petrols and Australia get Diesels BUT not the Top of The Range Diesel Motor. It's a shame about Diesels and the U.S.A. I read somewhere diesel fuel isn't good quality. True or False?
