You got misinformed on your research. The pre-facelife (pre-2004) had the permanent 32/68 split system, which you indicated you hate. Since you like xDrive (post-2004), which have the variable torque split, why would you want to lock it permanently into a system you said you hated? xDrive is still bias toward rear wheel drive and can direct up to 100% power to either axles, which is a far superior system than the "fixed" torque split system.
