Its not real world though is it ?...big cc cars are fast on an " endless" straight. But add in traffic, stops etc...still few big cars which can make progress like a bike can. Plus, dont even want to think what the mpg of the merc is at this speed ! 
Have encountered very few cars on normal roads which keep up with a large cc bike , as much due to traffic limitations as anything.
Have experienced a M5 on the A2 which was very quick up to 150, but that was an empty 3 lane motorway.
Only time on my fazer I encountered a ferrari on a twisty road , he couldnt keep up.Probably didnt want to risk his pride and joy maybe ?? But ferraris are big wide cars on B roads.
You have to be avery good driver to pilot these beasts on a twisty road.
Best cars IMO for the real world are yer hot hatches or suburus simply cos of their nimbleness. A 3.2 litre audi A3 is a potent car for sure. Let alone an Rs4 or 8.
Must still be very frustrating for most " fast " car owners as where can they use them for most of the time ? Pose is probably more the norm than real action.... 
I once chased one of the old Porsche 911 Turbos down my favourite twisty road in my beat up 1.6 Orion. Only one very short stretch where he started to pull away from me, but I was on his tail all the rest of the way - it's as much about knowing the road well, as obviously that Porsche should've left me for dead. He had a passenger in the car, he must've been well embarrassed!
