I'm the first balk at the idea of front drive car, but the 164 does it well. It doesn't try to pass for a rwd, but exhibits excellent handling characteristics for a fwd. For me, it has the excitement and beauty of an alfa, but also has 4 doors, 4-5 seats, cruises effortlessly and comfortably on the highway, and it plows through snow!

When it came time to slim down our cars, the M3 got sold, the 164 stayed. It also has no problem hanging with the rwd alfas!
