You have to define "fastest" and "production"

Some cars do 0-60 faster than some with top speeds in the 240 mph range.

Production, limited production, tuner cars . . .

Calloway Corvette Sledgehammer: 255 mph
Bugatti EB 16 /4veyron: 252 mph
Dauer 962: 250 mph
Vector Avtech WX-3: 249 mph
Koenigsegg CC: 240 mph
Tvr speed 12: 240 mph
McLaren F1: 240 mph
Ferrari Koenig Evolution: 230 mph
Hennessey Viper Venom: 225- 230 mph
Lamborghini VTTT: 223 mph
Ferrari Enzo: 217 mph

whenever i hear the word Production i think of cars that you can walk into a dealership and buy.. not really special order cars. because if you include them then the McLaren can be thrown in too.

actually i think ferarri said it wasnt gonna make the enzo the topspeed fastest because its owners care a lot more about handling and acceleration at speeds lower than 200mph. I think the veyron is going to be the fastest tho.

F1 LM: 6064cc Aluminium V12, 668 bhp, top speed 220mph (geared to limit the top speed), 0-60 in 3 seconds, 0-100 in 5.9

they only made five of them, so it's not a "production" car, does not qualify!

As for the Vector, it has been claimed that that claimed top speed was not true, and was just created by Vector. It has never been proven, and some say it is impossible with the dynamics of the car.

There's fastest, and there's quickest.
Fastest - the highest speed a car can practically achieve, over a reasonable length of time (non-standard).
Quickest - the earliest a car can get to a standard speed (0-60 being the standard).
