Americans would almost inevitably say "Me neither," and given that a more formal response would be "Neither can I," I consider it reasonable. I don't know, neither do I care, what the Grammarians would say.

"Me neither" is idiomatic English. It is a set phrase. The OED has it as colloquial, originally USA, meaning "nor I". I think saying "nor I" might come across as a bit old-fashioned and formal in relaxed everyday British conversation, but it would be understood.
