All that said, I care about the driving characteristics of the car the most. Has anyone driven them side by side? Assuming msport 6sp for both, are there noticeable performance penalties on the xDrive? There typically are through higher drivetrain loss and added weight...

Dude, you're getting an amazing car, don't ruin it. Listen to these ppl on here. Go with RWD, with WINTERS from Nov 15- March 31st. You'll get 3 winters with your winters, lol. And with RWD on SUMMERS, this is every mans dream ( well a lot of people) but you catch my drift. One season of winters, 3 seasons of summers, wow that sounds wonderful to my ears...
