.28 cd and 6 gear manual trams with excellent top gear (like .603)

I don't know of any other sedan in the US with such drag coefficient and gear ratio #'s
I guess I must have gone wrong with the .28 cd hyndai with an awesomely low 6 gear manual ... it doesn't seem to be getting much attention...
are the diesels really better then it?
