That and around town dynamics which is almost 90% of my driving don't lend itself to the size of the 6. Granted I have a 650ix GC. But it is a big and long car. However for long distance cruising or for a big guy probably would work out well. I am a driver and like HPE and track events too and no 6 outside of a M6 would do well there.
Yes...went with a 2015 M3 w/DCT and a few options and am 110% happy. It's definitely the sweet spot here for me. More sporty than the 6 by far and also the 550 I had. Not as luxurious and I do miss a few options (mainly comfort access-had gotten lazy and HUD-is repeated in the lower dash in my car so not as bad). But so far yes great move from 6 to 3 which I don't regret as I didn't need all that space and size honestly and the 650ix GC just became too unwieldy for me!
