But I think a more likely thing happening is M-B trying to qualify the 3.2-liter V-6 turbodiesel for 50-state emissions certification. If they can do that expect both the ML and R series to sport a turbodiesel option starting in the 2007 model year.

so you think when they don't have a business case for the car they will spend Billions to expand the plant so they can sell the car in the US?
