AWD vs RWD

I'm considering upgrading from an E53 4.4i to a F15. I realized there is a RWD version. Is a sDrive35i more fun to drive than a xDrive35i?

Have driven AWD vehicles since the mid 90s and would not consider a two wheel drive vehicle, not even a FWD. When the E70 was in the process of getting a new engine the insurance for the indy garage paid for a rental. Turned out to be a CVT, FWD Nissan. We had a frost and used up all the salt in the house to get the stupid FWD junk back into the garage. Used the AWD F15 and had no problems in or out!

Drove out of 8 inches of snow this February with the F15. xdrive never spun a tire in the hills of southeastern Oklahoma. I won't drive anything but AWD in this type of vehicle. Now my 1970 Firebird will be a different story
