Something similar happened to me when I had the '08 M6. Went as far as it shutting completely off in the middle of an intersection at one point. Drove it back home and then had it towed to the nearest service center, got a loaner, next day they tell me I need a new alternator and battery. Two days later when I'm supposed to pick it up they call me and tell me the engine fan died when they were test driving it, so add a new fan to that. Got it back and didn't have any electrical issues with it since except for constant failures of the passenger's side headlamp. Hadn't had any such issues with the '14 M6 yet, knock in wood.
