I've driven Mustangs, MR2 Turbo, M2's, etc year round but there are winter days you have to leave the car in the garage because even with winter tires you are going to have issues in heavy snow accumulation and there are always going to be those winter storms where it's white knuckle driving to and from work in a high powered RWD car.

You're right but here's my issues
1) you can't drive it in RWD mode with MDM or TC on. If you want a true rwd experience without tc fully off you can't have that. Rwd still has a certain feel to it in MDM that AWD doesn't have. I like minor wheel chirp and slippage that doesn't turn into massive slides
2) the more important reason - weight. I'm really curious whether the rwd or awd M3/M4 will be better around a track. Awd makes cars slightly more nose heavy
