The 4WD system is great for added traction on slippery road surface but the extra overhead consumed by the 4WD drive terrain makes the car less efficient, especially top speed. That's why F1 is not 4WD and rally is 4WD. For true long distance high speed cruiser, u need a big horse and not a horse injected with steroid. That's how u separate the man from the boy..I'm happy my 320i can trash the E39 //M5 in gymkhana while an E30 318is trashed me <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite3" alt=":(" title="Frown    :(" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":(" />.. it all depends on situation la. For my "application", the 320d is more towards my cup of tea.. :top:</blockquote>
