BMW 7-Series To Get AWD In Late 2009
Starting in late 2009, BMW will offer its xDrive all-wheel-drive system on the new flagship 7-Series, meaning the big Seven will now have more ammunition with which to battle the Mercedes-Benz S-Class and Audi A8. However, BMW has insisted upon keeping the 7's rear-drive dynamics intact, so while other BMW xDrive vehicles have a 40 percent front and 60 percent rear power distribution, the 7 will have a 30:70 rear bias.
In America, all versions of the 7-Series will be available with all-wheel drive, though no U.S.-spec pricing figures have been released at this time. Across the pond, however, AWD will command €2500 to €2800 more than the respective rear-drive models. BMW is currently testing the all-weather 7 in cold climates, but look for the xDrive 7-Series to launch at the Frankfurt Motor Show in October.

Good plan. Now, where's the diesel?

No one cares about diesel while gas is $1.60 a gallon.
