Its a tough call for sure, but to me the GC is just too big to be agile in any way as the F10 is already too big imho, and if not for the M magic with the suspension, would not even be drivable. The GC is a sporty designed 4 seater 7er, if you want to move people in flashy style, its the car for you, but if you want to move 5 people really really fast, go for the M5, it still going to be something special with the engine pushing close to 600hp while the 650 is just over 400hp, big difference in response and feel, and DCT too...

Now if you dont need that size, wait for the 4er Gran Coupe in a few years in M guise, it will be a bit bigger than the F30 as its on the longwheelbase 3er from China, will have the great coupe like looks but will be light years ahead in agility from the 6er GC...
