You've surely died and gone to heaven - some class having a Lotus Elise, Quattro Convertible and a 535d.
Nice choices. All you need now is a DB9 !

Took some pictures of them at weekend but can't seem to upload them

Chevrolet Corvette, Z06, RWD.
Bugatti Veryon, AWD

As for BMW, it is great to have a choice between rear and awd. They should and certainly will continue to offer both on an expanding model range. Something like 36% of the 530's sold are AWD, which is strong considering the extra cost. We can all get what makes us happy and only the Audi sales department suffers.

BTW, I think the RWD 5 Series are fantastic. A close friend has one and is nice enough to let me get behind the wheel. I love it.
