This is far more important than whether they are diesel powered
Unfortanetly Alfa doesn't make any rear wheel drive cars anymore, only fwd and some 4wd versions. The 8C is offcourse rwd, but that's a Maserati in an Alfa dress
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.
