hey guys, yes Alfa has had some Awesome RWD cars, as far back as the 105′s… but you all have Forgotten that at the same time (and pre Golf) Alfa had some bloody brilliant FWD cars as well Check out Alfa Sud… their knowledge and understanding of FWD is second to none…

Probably the ‘honour’ of leaving their post (which is a blatant advertisement).

Agree….spot on Baddass.

As a previous Alfa owner of a rear wheel drive 3.0V6 Alfa 75 model it was supurb in the corners with its trans-axle rear mounted gearbox and double wishbone front suspension, and inboared rear mounted brakes.

A real drivers car and this was in the late 80′s before they went FWD.

Does this mean they will be pulling out of Australia and leaving behind orphans?

Detroit has a chance to show the nation and the world that they’re listening to the cries for greater fuel efficiency! The Electric Fiat 500, the Toyota FT-CH, and the Honda CR-Z hybrid are all great eco-friendly cars of the sort Americans are now demanding: let’s hope for more like them as the Auto Show continues.

I love the 159, but is it any better than a Mazda 6? No I don’t think it is and so why pay another $15,000 for one?

Reduce your prices Alfa and you will be on a winner.
