Not sure why.
I have a tuned F56 Cooper S and that car is seriously more fun than my 360 Spider and far more fun than my BMW.

So buy an RS5?
Not everyone wants their cars to be the size of small yachts. I love small cars and find the A3 bordering being too big. I love the A1.

I'd be curious about this as well. FWD isn't really that big of a deal - and will probably gain more buyers than missing RWD would lose. Having no manual transmission really eliminates the ability to call this car a true 'drivers car' and just makes it one more random sedan.
