Abarth is FWD and the seating position is too high IMO.

If I had to drive an auto, this is my favorite slush-box. (I think it's the same one that comes in the Lexus IS) In sport mode, with the nannies turned off, it does what I would do with the gears 95% of the time. It even holds gears for engine braking.

i realized it is FWD, but didnt know about the seating position. i looked at the abarth's steering wheel angle and it reminded me of a bus..

i like my steering wheel more perpendicular like our Z's.
