I personally rather have a more reliable N/A motor.
I agree. I test drove an Audi a4 2.0t before I decided on the G. It was beyond slow and the Turbo lagged. If we get a Turbo G, there will be Turbo lag, throttle lag, and transmission lag if its an auto. If you floor it, you wouldn't start moving until the day after.

I guess the only attractive part on an Audi is the eyelid, besides that, nothing special to me.

Ya, it looks like a plain sedated sedan with a nice set of headlights. I even liked the interior of the G more.

The diesel will have less hp, more torque, run out of breath at higher rpm, and nose heavy. Not good for a sporty car.

No it doesn't. It would go up to 8K by the look of it.

The only thing that is obvious is that this is one G that would have more dash rattles and squeaks than mine!

No, they are spaced out way more than the VQ37 G. It looks like it might top out at 6k, MAYBE 7k, but considering the G shows all the way to 9k in the red that makes sense they would show up to 7k for the diesel with a real redline around 5500rpm.
