Almost nobody drives automatics in the EU, don't know how it comes that automatics are so popular in the US but nobody drives them in the EU. An automatic gearbox is a very costly option over here, on some cars it's a couple of thousand euro's. That's probably one of the reasons.

It is almost certain that the Alfa 169 (166 successor) will get RWD. Rumours say it will be based on a Cadillac Sigma platform currently used by the CTS. By 2010-2011 all new Alfa’s should have RWD except the Junior and 147.
