Was curious about non-turbo's. Will like a 95 hold it's own in high speed up and down traffic ok without causing a traffic barge? Or would getting a turbo be the best choice like a 99 or up?

People who have driven both really like the turbo version, but the NA version isn't all that slow. Mine does just fine in traffic.

Rebe, I've owned both and there's a significant difference between the two. OTOH, the non-turbo car travels somewhat farther on a gallon of diesel.

Enjoy!

I have heard people claim 700 miles on a tank of fuel on a NA 606.

Thats 33.175 mpg (based on an 80L tank)....easily done with a 606.910, 606.912 AND doable with the 606.962 (turbo) pending type of driving and speed (eg: 65mph on highway).

I never did the math. It should be almost doable with my 603, if I could just keep my foot out of it and the speed down.

Too bad it ain't gonna happen!

Go turbo.......

'98-'99 & Up............. BTW, the 606 gets better mpg @ 75 mph, than 65 mph......let it stretch it's legs out better 70-75+ mph.......

The non-turbo 606 has more power than the turbo 617 so it will be as fast as or faster than an 82-85 300D/CD/TD/SD.
