Now if I wanted to get a really fast car that would be on the top of my shopping list. Years of sports car pedigree, a prestigious brand and german build quality.
If its important to you, I reckon it would hammer an M6 round a test track or winding road. On Top Gear even a bog standard 911 took care of an M6 (both in the hands of a professional racing driver albeit on a wet road surface). I recall the M6 was a full 6 seconds slower !!!

Yes but it was still surprising given the M6 had like 140 more bhp. Power to weight surely must be higher on the M6 compared to a bog standard 997. The M6 was no quicker than an Aston with 360bhp. Probably just to heavy to be chuckable.
The problem with the M6 in the UK is that it costs ?83k which puts it firmly in fast Porsche / Aston territory. Even the base model Ferrari costs ?100k. BMW has a great history of producing medium prestige saloons etc and the M5 is the pinnacle of the sector. However these brands are far more prestigious than BMW and have a lot more pedigree in buidling a two door sports car. Also don't forget the pose value the other brands offer over BMW. Aston / Porsche / Maserati etc dont make a ?16k 116i or a ?20k 318i (although Porsche with its Boxter / Cayenne is trying its best to screw its brand up).
It's not all about horse power as the Top Gear test illustrates. Having said all of that the M6 will probably still sell reasonably well......
