I must admit I like the look of the M6 more than the M5, of course that is subjective. Apart from styling, since they are both M cars, would you feel the M6 would be a completely different beast compared to the M5, handling, acceleration etc wise? or it is safe to say the M5 is a 4 door version of the M6? any thoughts appreciated.

In the current generation they are very different cars, I would not at all say that the 6er is a 2 door 5er as the interior space is completely unique in the M6, and the 6er is wider. The M6 though is a 2 seater, dont expect much utility if you need room for more than one passenger. The styling is radically different, and you pay for that exclusivity. They will be very differently priced, so that is part of the equation too, and the handling will be very different too. They are both vastly larger vehicles from your current e92, so understand that it will not be as nimble no matter how much more power they have, and you should test them both to ensure you can live with such a vehicle, they are crusiers while the e92 is like a go-kart.
