???? I'm kind of confused by this. Can you see through the CF roof? If not, then it is not nicer. The M6 GC is one of the darkest interiors I've ever been in. The lack of sunroof in that car removes it from my list and many other's list. So no, it is not as nice - in fact, the painted roof and black sunroof look better - to me at least.

Most would say that the ZF8 is superior for daily driving. The DCT blows it away on the track of course, but I'm thinking that most of us spend our time on the street.

None of that matters in a Chicago winter. I'll take on any M6 from Nov-March here But seriously, the 650 is pretty doggy off the line. I would hope the M6 does not have the lag - the way the turbos are plumbed should eliminate most of that.

I would expect the M6 and M6GC to be compared to the 911 and not the 911TT. In that case just like all of your points above such as
"it's not just about power! the more important thing is how to manage and control that power and that's why you need sporty suspension and some fast transmission like DCT."
go against the M6 and go in favor of the more nimble 911.
