Thanks.

I havent had my M3 in about 3 years but from what I can remember:

The M6 is heavier, more planted at speed but less numble in sharp turns. The M6 is much faster with an underrated 560hp at the crank vs 414 hp but speed isnt everything. The M3 is the better handler no doubt on a track but on big sweeping high speed bends and long straights the M6 will give you more confidence IMHO due to the heavier more rigid chassis and longer/wider stance. This is all very subjective to needs, wants, experience etc so this is just my 2 cents.
