I cannot speak from experience on the six carbon 6 but a while back someone on the forum wanted to get either a six13 or a caad9 and most people told them to go with the caad9. It has one of the best aluminum frames out there and comes with 105 components for a nice price. But some people just prefer having a carbon ride.

Caad 9's are still made in the US, while the all new Six series are made elsewhere. You decide. Caad 9 is a great time tested frame. The six carbon is brand new. Not to say that Cannondale doesnt know what they are doing, it just something to think about, if they cheaped out on where the frame is made, maybe they did other places too.
