Given a choice, there is no doubt I would buy the M6 coupe. Look below for side view compare. (Not to scale but close)
Never really liked the 6/M6 coupe's design, something off with the side profile, The convertible and gran coupe looked really good though. I think the new 8 coupe looks really good, its got a muscular elegance to it, and the spy shots of the gran coupe look real good, excited to drive that one.
