BMW is truly the benchmark. :]
If that were true then surely Audi would be rwd and you could make that argument for just about any other brand out there making competing products. VW introduced the Audi brand to simple move into a sector and price point where VW couldn't go and be successful in much the same way as Mercedes and BMW use their Maybach and Rolls Royce products. I personally think it's great we still have such a diverse range of brands competing for your attention, it makes for a very competitive and initiative collection of models.

Though I totally agree that BMW do set the trend with niche models more so than any other brand.
