I think there's a phaseout that lasts until 2010, but practically speaking, you are right. I was confused because of some stuff we have going on here with the phaseout of high sulfur off-road diesel. My bad.

i have a 2006 Jetta TDI, ordered it with top of the line interior package, came to 26,500 (also ordered it without automatic transmission- this saved close to 1800)
Got it in August 06-it now has 28,000 miles. I get 48mpg driving 1/2 city and 1/2 highway on 35 mile commute to work, top speed about 65 for 10 miles (no interstate hgwy)
My friends in Scotland have owned diesel BMWs for several years- same in Germany where all my friends who have a car have diesel. Diesel is MUCH more proven than hybred.

diesel and especially turbodiesel is numero uno
 
Think diesel is smart way to go and IMO diesel vehicles in u.s. is increasing >20%in next ten years. Son has 02 VW gas(38mpg), friend has 05 tdi(53mpg). The VW TDI is excellant bargain and especially with diesel less than 87 octane at this time---good luck
