I'm debating between the M235i and the 2015 Golf R. The Golf R is also an all-wheel drive but can shift all power to rear wheels when needed. Will BMWs xDrive do the same?
Anyone who has experience with a BMW xDrive sports car...if you can help me out here it will be greatly appreciated.

I don't know what it will be like for a M235i but I have recently driven a 435i xDrive in an autocross setting and it was phenomenal. I was expecting it to be too high and not grounded enough but it was impressive especially when accelerating out of sharp turn. If you accelerate at the apex it literally pulls you out of the turn with a slingshot like feel and it's stable.
