Just wondering did you test drive the G30? While the 2016 GC is one of my favourite looking cars and almost purchased one, the thing that prevented me was the F series 5 , and 6 series drove like a tank. They were were slow as hell with the 6 cylinder and the V8 was not the most reliable.
The G30 drives better, is newer, and the B58 is a great engine.
For me after driving the G30 with the B58 it was no competition.

Yes I did. I ended up going with the G30. I just loved all the new tech and updated features. Even though, I love the design on the 6 series I just couldn’t overlook the almost outdated interior.
