Yeah didn't see the M6 but it should probably rank right above the M5 due to better aerodynamics.
Man, one of my bucket list items would be to do a 200mph+ run in my M5.

Actually I recall in Europe, you can have the option to have the speed limiter removed from the factory.

HAHAHA!
Hmm...I'm wondering if that's why the AMG cars aren't on there because they don't have the option to delimit from the factory. Either that or their natural top speed is still below the Porsche's 185mph.
