I've been tempted by diesels, but they seem like every part that can break, breaks. The $$$ you save in fuel goes into maintenance!

I'm not afraid of parts, theyre fairly robust. BUT I never pursued one seriously in CA because of the emissions equipment. The SCR system and DEF tank is prone to failure and is around $3000 or more just for the parts. Same with the DPF. However his is running perfectly fine with all that stuff intact. Close friend of mine was offering to sell his to me as a favor for $9500 and it had 80K miles, but the emissions stuff was original and I didn't want an auto at the time. If I test drove that car it might have been a different story. It didn't have the m-sport package and didn't look as nice as this one either.
