Future All Wheel Drive MINI

I had an interesting conversation with a well known and knowledgable Mini/MINI expert today. No, I will not name him as I gave my word. He told me that he was approached by BMW/MINI to consult about future MINI models. He said "mark my words" an All Wheel Drive MINI mule is already built and being tested. Their goal is a winning World Ralley team. I told him I sure would like it if my S had the awd and horsepower of the Subaru WRX and he claims that is MINI's intention. He laughed off the "M" rumor, but was dead serious about the above awd and 200+ hp version.
Where do I put my deposit down?
