I thought they already were available in the states for a while, but ok.
we have them since 1998.....and the funny thing about the pre-facelift models is, that the turbo pressure outlet looks like a gas tank cap......and women use to pull it out and fill gasoline or diesel in there, so they flood the turbo and the engine lol

lol (in german though)
If you want to buy a gas saving car, get yourself a Golf TDI......german turbo diesels arent like the old GM diesels, they are pretty good instead.
