Replacement for a Falcon 7X

As the title really, we have an 18 month old 7X and the owner is looking to order the next jet to allow for the waiting list and delivery times.

I've convinced him to vist Ebace this May, but I'd appreciate input, either positive or negative for the G650 Vs. Global 6000.

I appreciate that it is highly unlikely that anyone will have first hand experience of both, and I don't want this to descend into a Gulfstream Vs. Bombardier slanging match, but personal experience is welcomed.

I have heard that if you want customer service, then the market leader is Gulfstream??

I personally think he needs, (purely from a space/seating perspective), to order a Global 7000, but that won't be flying for a couple of years, and I don't think I could recommend having one of the first 50 or so serial numbers of a new aircraft type, meaning we'd have the 7X for probably 4-5 years.
