I owned the E-PL6 and personally I would go with the Panasonic GX85. With the GX85 there will be less of a learning curve since the interface will be very similar to the G85. It's smaller than the G85 and you'll get an EVF which the E-PL6 lacks. The E-PL6 is cheaper but it will feel like a major step backward if you start using the features on the G85.

You should be able to find a used GX85 for around $500.

Adorama has a used GX85 for $549 and a GX85 with the 12-32mm f3.5-5.6 lens for $599. They are both D rated which means "little or no signs of wear" which is excellent. They have a return policy and give a used warranty.
