I've got the 75 in both 2.5v6 and diesel. Me personally go for it the v6 engine is a peach. The diesel in my opinion isn't that great really and mine is running a high map. If I had the choice I wouldn't buy the diesel again. The v6 is more of a cruiser than an out an out sports car. 0-60mph comes u...
