I would have been happy with either one as it was going to be my daily and we went for the SS.
I think you pointed out where I screwed up, I drove the SS and she didn't, she didn't want to drive it but I have to insist she drive it to see how it feels to drive. Especially with the magnetic shocks and that awesome suspension, the SS separates itself from the M2 as a superior driver's car or plush riding car with the adjustable suspension.

Wife just hated the sound of the SS and I loved it immensely.

Interestingly, the extra cost bothers me more than my wife on the $12-15K extra.

On the fun, yeah for me the SS wins but I'll say the M2 would also be fun and maybe a better daily driver.
