Man....i would have to agree with him. The increase in the level of traction, grip and thrust with the 4MATIC would be intoxicating.....

But losing the ability to toss around all that power with some big monstrous slides, kinda decreases the overall fun/hoon factor that everyone loves about the car....

For a "weekend warrior"?
You are absolutely right but for a daily driver it's just absolute perfection.

I have my modified GTR for hooning around in during the 5 measly months of decent weather we get here. This car is the ultimate daily driver for My age, number of kids and climate. Gives me something to look forward to in the fall unlike the usual dreading of the impending doom of winter coming.

Wow! Great find! Chris Harris is one of the best in the business... Even though he said he prefer the RWD version I just don't think that applies to the masses, he's a professional who just loves drifting. For the most part, US buyers are gonna be buying this as a daily driver. And with the amazing handling with AWD and the year-round abilities I think this one is gonna be a homerun! Can't wait to pick one up.

I agree. I just wish the US had the option of getting the car with the more conservative front end.
