I am about 35 minutes from Newark Airport. The car is very comparable to a 300D turbo with an auto transmission, nowhere near as slow as a 240D but faster than a N/A 300D auto.

I've gotten 23mpg but you can get more.. I drive it with the pedal down all the time. It also has a new exhaust manifold from the factory, I forgot to mention. No, I don't see any problems getting parts for it.
