Yeah, definitely looking forward to it. Not in the market in the near term, but really interested to hear about an AWD ///M car.
While I can't imagine it being anywhere near as fun as my RWD, it's something I may consider for practicality reasons in the future...or maybe not since no 6MT. Either way, should be interesting and glad they are trying something new.
As far as the front...at least you don't have to look at it while driving
