Volkswagen BlueSport Concept

[SeanPlunk]

I love this concept, good for Volkswagen. This thing has a mid-mounted 2.0L Turbo Diesel with 180 hp and 260lb/ft and weighs in at 2600lbs. It gets about 55mpg with a DSG transmission. I'm sure if you up the boost a little bit it would be VERY fun to drive. Diesel roadster FTW :bigthumbsup:

Looks like the love child of an RX-8, MX-5, Convertible TT, maybe with some Boxer thrown in. On first glance, sorta looks like a hodge podge. It's nice though. :huh:
