Diesel is consistently cheaper than or equal to regular (87 Octane) gas where I fill up so it really depends on your location. I chose the diesel not for its mileage specifically (though its of course nice to have) but the character I feel it ads to the driving experience. I'm one of the weird ones who actually like the diesel sound and of course the available low end torque for around the town driving. Its also nice to have something a little different (even if only in a way that <1% of people would even know about) in a vehicle which just about everyone seems to have in SoCal. I love my M-Sport diesel with a red interior as it suits me perfectly!
