Asinine! I actually believe the M4 GTS can even reach as fast as 200 mph, maybe 201 if you're lucky. This GTS would easily have been a full-fledge supercar back in the day. Don't even talk about the decade difference, I'm sure the M4 GTS would also spank the Murciélago LP640 (not sure about the SV).
