Have you driven it personally? I'm looking to hear some feedback from those who own a 2013...
Yes I have. I took a 2014 M6 coupe home one night and took both my 2013 F10 and then my 2103 F12 out for a spirited comparison ride along with it. I was not looking to compare the steering. In fact, I was not even thinking about it but after driving it first I immediately noticed a profound difference the minute I jumped in the F10. Then I got in the F12 and noticed the same thing so I got back in the coupe again to be sure I wasn't nuts-and I wasn't. It was such a difference that it became the focus of the comparisons and a big part of my decision to order a 2104 M6 comp pkg the next day. It feels very much more connected to the road. It feels less "heavy" and you get much better feedback. Even now when I drive the F12 I notice the steering not being so sporty.
