BimmerM3inGA is on a distinguished road
No need for AWD here in southern GA. The 4.6is is strictly an on-road vehicle anyway - no chance of ever taking it 4-wheeling with 20" summer tires.

Ditching the AWD hardware gets rid of 3 driveshafts, 6 CV joints, a differential, a transfer case, two oil sumps, and I-don't-know-how-many gaskets and seals. It's not like 340HP is so much that it'll overwhelm the rear tires.
