No. I dislike the E55 4matic because it's made by a company which claims
that rear wheel drive is all you need in a passenger or sports car and
AWD is only necessary for people who often have to drive through deep
snow or mud :-) BMW has the same attitude... the 330iX has jacked
suspension compared to rwd version.
20 years ago Audi proved that AWD greatly improves handling in all
driving conditions, which was further proved by Porsche and numerous
Japanese manufacturers... yet some people at Stuttgart and Munich still
don't get it!
