I to prefer rear wheel drive and wish Xdrive wasnt neccesary but for some people it is. So why should someone be forced to buy and ausi when they dont want one just because it has awd and Bimmer doesnt.

Thats what happened with my wife. She used to have an 04 audi A6 and the reason why she got it was the Quattro at the time bimmer had no 5 series awd option. So why should bmw loose sales to audi for no reason.
I really do think that bimmer offering AWD with the 7 will kill the A8 sales. as well as hte 5 series XI killing the A6 sales
