I guess you mean immediate grip, not power?

AWD can be fun, but isn't usually considered as a fun option. It's better for traction under acceleration but not much else. But a setup like the new Focus RS seem to work great. But that system was developed to make a fwd car feel like a RWD car. They rejected the existing systems as used by Audi (and for instance in the A45 AMG) as they where to front biased and boring to drive...

BMW and particularly BMW M, is based around RWD agility and fun factor. And even at the current M5 power levels, the M5 is still quicker on a track than it's AWD competitors...
