Interesting to note:
If saving fuel (without losing performance) is so high on the aussie agenda, why arn't we all demanding the import of Direct Injection engines?

Toyota's got their 2.0l D4 in 3/4 of the current car line in Japan. Audi is introducing their FSI range in A2, A3's in the UK. Volvo has been selling Mitsubishi's Direct Petrol Inject for some 6 months or more now, in all countries where petrol is considerably more expensive than AU.

Furthermore: Why do aussies then keep buying big inefficeint Holden/Ford 6's and 8's when a Turboed 4, 5 or smaller 6 can produce superior performance and petrol consumption?

Maybe we're just all stupid?
