In saying that, now that I've driven an M6 as well, the DCT gearbox and ride isn't as refined as the 650i so I guess it can depend on what you're looking for too. A 650i with a flash tune could be fast but still very comfortable

Today
C5driver and I attended in McLaren event in Newport beach. They introduced 570s including all of the performance capability and features this car is offering. Then I asked the guy to let me test drive the car. They didn't have the car for test drive (the one they introduced was pre-production) but he offered me test driving a 12C. Well it was blessing to test drive that super car so I took the opportunity. After 1-2 minutes driving the guy trusted me and let me push the car to the limit in sport mode and track mode
... It's a fantastic fast car and I loved it. great handling and great driving experience. The driver's seat position and steering wheel style give you lots of confidence to rape the car
and as he said I drove the car the way it's meant to be driven BUT guys trust me in power delivery, torque and DCT department,
M6 is a winner PERIOD. I know it's hard to believe but please go ahead and test drive both cars and push them to the limit then you will get what I am talking about.
I wish the next generation of M6 will be 5-6" in shorter length and 400-500 lb lighter... and NO AWD PLEASE
