I agree that Europe gets some really cool cars I'd like to see here, and I like diesel a whole hell of a lot more than I like hybrids. And I like Scirroco's (I had one as a youth and enjoyed the hell out of it). But I can't wrap my mind around putting the two together.

It's already a turbo though, I'm not sure what the TDI's are being tuned to these days but I would expect 450lbs of torque wouldn't be too hard to get to. If gas prices zoom back up that'd look a lot more attractive to me.
