I have basically got the cars narrowed down to the C63 and the M6. In and around town the C63 would be a blast to drive with all it's tq but in the end a full bolt on C63 vs. a full bolt on M6 would get eaten up on the highway IMO.
Both cars would look sick slammed to the ground with aftermarket wheels. It seems like they would also sound so different, the C63 been more muscular and brawny with the M6 sounding like a F1 car.
I do have a wife and two kids which very rarely get in my cars, lol but that also plays a factor.

I'm not an M6 fan really but M6>C63 for SURE. Much more car, and a much higher "level" of car, all personal tastes, etc. aside.
I understand what you mean about the "been there done that" thing, in why you might want to experience a different car instead of getting back into a W211. What would be my personal issue if I were in your shoes, in regards to going C63, is IMO you're jumping down a level of car, and if interior/luxury/refinement has any weighing factor, you're jumping down like 10 levels. Although performance wise, it's a better handler, probably sounds even sweeter, is more nimble, more fun to drive, raw, sporty, etc.
Out of the cars you mentioned, I'd probably choose between the 211/CLS/M6, the C63 is sweet, but I just don't think it'd win over any of those.
Also, if the C63 is the type of car that you're craving, I'd be another to recommend the E92 M3.

But let me tell that the setup was optimal for the eyes but not for the road!

you cant **** it up. A C63 is well a C class the end of the day.
