Just drove a 159 for a week in Italy. Quietest diesel I've driven. Great brakes, flat cornering for a four door. Problems-astute throttle management needed to  reconcile lack of low-rev torque with turbo surge at 2000-3000rpm, and, hello, it's front wheel drive. In short, handling characteristics have been optimized for average drivers. Anyone looking for the old alfa feeling will have to look elsewhere.
