I'm sure it will primarily be new minis and a couple BMWs. Not the end of the world. Every car manufacturer does something to boost sales in one field or another. BMW wants to sell to the people who buy $35k toyotas, VW's, and random hatchbacks/small SUVs. Its not like they are going to scrap RWD all together.
Porsche made the cayenne to get into SUV sales.
Lamborghini now has AWD
rumors of Aston Martin 4 doors
And the list goes on... As long as we still have RWD M cars ill be happy.
All BMW would be doing is diluting their glorious past but making more of these abominations. and i'm sticking with the e30 being the last truly great car made by bmw, though the e46 m3 isn't bad.

This argument doesn't hold any water with me. They are already competing with these cars with the 1 series and the lower-end 3 series EVERYWHERE but North America. BMW-NA just won't import them here because of some they don't think they will sell here. So apparently, instead of using what they have available already, they are going re-invent the wheel.
