The original post is about the M4 GTS.
Not really a "daily driver," though I suppose it could be.
And if an M4 GTS doesn't "tickle the soul" then you are soulless.

Again, the M4 GTS is much more track-focused than your average BMW.
Therefore "being faster" means more for the M4 GTS than your average BMW.
You're not supposed to race on track days, but a pecking order will develop.

And anyway, doesn't saying "7:28 Nurburgring lap time" do anything for you?
You (probably) can't use all of its performance. But a professional driver did.
