Well, if you guys mean "total speed" then the Bugatti is king, however 0-60 time belongs to the Gumpert Apollo.

I love the Veyron, I think it is art on wheels. It might not be the best looking car, but the interior is superb!

Production cars Stalker.

Street legal is an entire new realm, when you think of McLaren F1, Koeniggsegg (however the hell you spell it), and the Bugatti, they mean production and street-legal cars.

Also noticed this:
Quote:
The top speed of 254.76 MPH was attained by John Lingenfelter as the driver, and apparently was not an official documented recorded speed.


So, maybe it is, but since it wasn't recorded, it doesn't hold any validity.

One of the major problems with the Veyron development was the tires not being able to cope with uber-speeds. That been sorted, and I think the stockos can cope.

Tankmeister should make some friends
Default Re: Fastest Production Car Ever!
Are those figures what manufacturers claim, or what has been tested by an outsider?

The bugatti Veyron plain sucks why would someone want to drive a 4200lb car at 250mph but if they got rid of the luxuries and make it weigh 3800lbs then it would be the ultimate supercar. Since 5-10 people in the world would want one/ can afford one its almost not even a production car.
