You're taking me too literally, what I said was partly ironic, and I never implied that an M6 would outperform a 640d, but my literal argument is this:

If you're espousing and endorsing BMW's stance that the M6 is targeting a different audience to traditional M-buyers, and is veered more as a super-GT, then why go through the expensive pain of acquiring and running one, when arguably the ultimate GT in the range would be the 640d which has supercar performance with hatchback economy? And you can add the M-Sport and or/ the optional active damper package for an edgier drive?

I've sensed BMW drivers/owners (of which I'm one) are slightly lacking in humour and react quite strongly to the feintest whim of criticism.
