Re: Petrol or Diesel???
You should take a look at BMW 640d. Can smoke out even some of best petrol cars.
+1. It is for this reason trucks & buses are on diesel.
Honda Accord is very good car. First hand experience, but now running costs are a pain. Ofcourse, if running is low, it very good but now age has starting showing on Accord. I was told by Honda guy that new Accord will come in 2013 that too with diesel mill. Waiting for that now.
Btw, personally I liked Accord more than Superb coz Accord is good not only to sit in rear (Sethjis as raj calls them ) but even nice to drive. Superb is pathetic compared to Accord as drivers car.
I prefer diesel, especially for big sedans. Reasons are -
And those who feel diesel aren't great as petrol, I suggest them to drive Merc E350 CDI. Its a gem of an engine & is better than its petrol sibling. Drive it once, & you will forget petrol.

My dear,bring some 'road-going' car,not these 'made-for-purpose' ones.
It is not just about the torque buddy. Its about when and how the torque is available.
Maybe my next car will be Accord which my father liked and I found very tough to take him to Superb.Or even a Superb TSi!!

I prefer diesel, especially for big sedans. Reasons are -
- Fuel efficiency is better, let alone just price difference between petrol & diesel,
- Chances of adultration are less compared to petrol,
- More importantly, while driving inter-city, finding 24x7 petrol pump is difficult but one can get diesel with ease. This is useful if you are inter-city traveler in your car,
- Our running is high, so car price difference of diesel is recovered in an year or year & half.
