We had both rwd and xdrive - same engine, same tune, both 6mt. Jumping back and forth between the two, the RWD definitely drives better. The steering is tighter, the turn radius is sharper, the suspension is much more planted. The xdrive car felt like a dull knife in comparison.
Xdrive was fun in the snow. But you can drive just fine with snow tires and RWD - tires are the important part. Personally I wouldn't want to compromise on handling, power and fuel economy for the 1 week a year AWD might be useful.
