The interesting thing is that all the european manuafacturers seemed to abandon djet at the same time. It does seem that kjet was a step back. My 73 450 SE had quite a bit more poke then my 80 450 SEL. Much bigger difference then the extra weight of the SEL could account for.
Was Djet just too expensive? Was it not up to the emerging emmission testing?
