I find it somewhat strange that one guy started the "Diesel" arguement... then disappeared... then a new guy came... he disappeared... then another new guy. Perhaps we're all just one in the same, but maturing each time?

My veiw is this. Fuel Cells have some time to go. Until then, for the US market, Hybrids is the way to go. For the European market, Diesel is the way to go. Gas is cheap here, the public is stupid and doesn't like diesel, and there is definately some control of the gov't by oil makers. Hell, Bush is from Texas. (I'm not trying to discrimate here, I voted for the guy.) Also, there is no strong diesel network in the US. Europe is the opposite. Gas is very expensive there (diesel isn't), there is no bad connotation of diesel, and they have the network. I think we're ready for a hybrid sports car. The 'hybrid' idea needs a boost, and giving it a sporty image can definately help (those 70hp Insights aren't). NSX is New Sports Experiment, and its a new decade (millenium for that fact), we're ready for a new sports experiment.
