Personally, I waited almost two years after the GT was announced, hoping the diesel would be coming here, but after a rep at the NYC autoshow said no way, at least until mid-cycle update (maybe next year) would it be a possibility - I relented and bought the 535i. My old car was just making me more an more annoyed so I took the plunge.
In some ways, I'd like to see the fuel prices go up IF they applied those funds ONLY to roads, not just the general revenue spending. We have lots of bridges and roads that should be fixed/replaced, and that would go a long way towards helping. It's one of those pay me now or pay me later things, as bumpy roads and detours end up costing more in fuel because of delays, and shortened life on things like shocks, springs, wheels and tires. So, it likely would cost the same out of pocket, but it's not on the political horizon.
