The AF points lighting up is impossible to see in good light, spent 5 minutes shooting recently with the lens on MF and didn't even realise, wasn't taking the time to chimp and the manual focus was close enough that it looked ok in the viewfinder.
I find there is somewhat more of a delay in low light, my 1Ds3 was the same. Basically with smaller and much more accurate AF sensors you don't get as fast focus in low light but it is accurate, my 5Dc could get low light f1.4 about 1 out of 4 shots. With the 5D3 you can set expanded AF points to help in low light for dancing pics etc.
Thing is, you can't focus recompose at anything wider than f2.8 or so consistently with 22 megapixels. Learnt that to my cost on the 1Ds3 and was the same with the 5D3. the focus innaccuracy really starts to show in a way that it just didn't with the 5Dc. That in itself (among other reasons) was what kept me from the 5D2 and would keep me away from the 6D. Bit silly to pay for all that expensive glass and a zillion megapixels then get soft pics.
I will say this though. The 5D3 is the camera I'd always wished my 5Dc was for the 7 years I used it. It really is a perfect wedding camera bar none (IMO). Don't forget the dual cards!
