Our M6 has DCT, M5/M8 have automatic ZF8 (less crisp gear change). Our M6 have hydraulic steering whilst M5/M8 have electric steering, thus the lifeless steering feel in these other cars. IMHO, Our M6 rear view looks nicer than M5 and probably M8
I'd take the M8 if it had a 2" longer wheelbase and 2" more rear passenger headroom, a DCT and a larger fuel tank. All of those things have changed from the M6 and now I'm thinking 812 SFT and B3 or B5 Touring - I need to go to 2 cars to replace the M6.
