Here is the fastest street legal car in the world, according to the Internet: http://www.dubaimotorshow.com/news/031213.html

The answer changes as newer, faster models come out. As of this posting, April 2005: How would you define the most amazing production car in the world? Would it be: The car with the most horsepower? The car with the fastest top speed and acceleration? The most expensive car? At the moment, the Bugatti Veyron appears to have it all: A W-16 engine that can produce 1,001 horsepower A top speed of 250+ mph (400+ kph) A zero-to-60 time of three seconds A zero-to-180 time of 14 seconds A price tag somewhere in the $1 million range. (From http://money.howstuffworks.com/bugatti.htm) Apparently, the Bugatti Veyron is the fastest, quickest-accellerating and most powerful car at this time, but there's no telling when a faster car will be made.

DeLorean Gipson's claim that the Mclaren F1 is the fastest shows that he doesn't pay much attention to what's happening in the supercar world. The Bugatti Veyron was officially clocked on several runs at over 400 KPH (248.5 MPH) on May 20, 2005. That is less than 250 MPH, true, but it is faster than the Mclaren F1 is capable of going! Also, the Koenigsegg CCR is claiming a higher top speed than the Mclaren F1, but for a truly accurate test, they should be run side-by-side (same day, same time, same place) so that all the conditions (wind, temperature, slope, etc) are exactly equal. Ditto for the Veyron when it finally makes it to production.

The Bugatti has hit the 248 mph mark, but I do not think it has actually made it into production status. A Sultan may have taken receipt of one and maybe the CEO of Bugatti has one in his garage. With that in mind, the McLaren would appear to be the logical "winner". You really can't consider the Bugatti as a street legal car if you can't get one on the street (even if you have the $$$). The Koenigsegg CC has 390 kph (242 mph) top speed sited in the press release, which is presumably from manufacturer's data. The McClaren speed of 240 mph comes from independant testing (ie, not the maker of the car). Calloway had a vette hit 250+ mph. The Hammer, I think. I don't know if that was a one-off or actually made it to production, but the same logic re the Bugatti invades my thinking, and gets me back to the McLaren. Of course, all this focuses on straightline speed. If you consider speed when not going in a straight line, the McLaren becomes even more obvious a choice. How many races have the Bugatti and/or Koenigsegg CC won (or entered)?

What about the Callaway Corvette Sledgehammer that can go as fast as 254 mph?
-
the fastest street legal car in the world is the slegehammer vette 254.76 MPH. and it has held that record since 1988. others can claim to go faster but dont have the proof. the slegehammer has the proof.

first of all i would like to say that the Koenigsegg CCR has beaten the mcLaren F1's speed record by passing 241 the fast car that i know of to be street legal would be the Henessey Venom 1000 viper it produces in excess of 1000 horse power and more than 1100 ft. lbs torque it goes 0-60 mph in 2.25 seconds and has a quarter mile time of under 9 seconds at 149.6 mph top speed of 255mph and runs a stading mile at 217.6 mph (from 0-217.6 mph in one mile) did i mention its probably the cheapest car that goes over 200mph that you can buy only $225k or if you already own a viper it'll cost you only $140k. hennessey is coming up with something even BETTER real soon, they are going to twin turbo their bored viper engine that pulls 800hp naturaly aspirated. they are expecting the twin turbo to run at over 1300hp!!! that will definitely take on any challenger

try this one 7.8 sec 1/4 mile, 0-60 1 SECOND!! http://youtube.com/watch?v=YtxfbxGz1u4

For me the answer is the ferrari enzo or f60 and is street legal.Although there were a very few F60's made you can't just buy one you were chosen by ferrari.

The fastest street legal car in the world is Jay Leno's 1966 Oldsmobile Toronado which has a top speed of 273mph... don't believe me, then see for yourself.
-
shoot no its the ME 412 0-100 1.5 secounds flaged at going 263 so what
-
You are all wrong. The SSC Ultimate Aero IS is the worlds fastest production car. 256 MPH. http://www.ridelust.com/guinness-makes-it-official-ssc-ultimate-aero-is-the-worlds-fastest-production-car/
-
a mig 25 goes over mach 3.2 so that is much faster than any other car And a avensis would beat a vauxhall nova
-
Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution
-
I WOULD HAVE TO SAY THE HENNESSEY VIPER
-
ok everyone is wrong. The fastest car is the swiss-made wester faster one, which beats the veyron and the SSC Ultimate Aero. It has a top speed of 260 mph. But it is ugly as hell. And the guy who said Jay Leno's car is the fastest, is wrong. Jay Leno is a fat ass, so he would weigh the car down, and make it barely go past 60 mph lol
-
the question is what is the fastest street legal car in the world....which means what is the fastest car that someone could drive in society...which means daytona type cars is out of the question...therefore, its the "weber faster one". Go look it up...its faster than the veyron, and the SSC ultimate AERO...it reaches up to 260mph...and it cost 1.5 mill
-
yes the ssc ultimate is the fastest legal car and the fastest car in the world is the Thrust SSC http://dept.physics.upenn.edu/courses/gladney/mathphys/java/images/thrustssc.gif http://www.billzilla.org/thrustssc.jpg http://www.gordon-glasgow.org/Images/thrustssc.jpg it has over 110000 bhp it can reach up to 1368.5 kph i think if you where nearby it you will fly with it and the world most expensive car is the Maybach Exelero http://www.codenuit.com/image/The+8+Million+dollar+Maybach_136.jpg it cost $8 million

Mossler 570 hp 2600 lbs its powered by a SMALL block 427 chevy my Zo6 with intake and exhaust and tune made 221 gps i drive it every day cost 70k

What about attainability. Whats the fastest attainable car. the Ford GT or anything under 150k Viper Mossler Zo6......anything over a price of a house really isn't a car. how about motor cycles.....out of the box a zx14 and Hayabusa....with speed limiters eliminated go over 200+ thats for 12k $. hehe thats why there always smiling.....they'vve got the worlds fastest beat at a minimum of 1/6 (z06) the price point. ya gotta amdmit an American car stable and DESINGED to go 200 @ 68-78K$ is an amaing feat supercars are scrambling....imagine if GM dropped another 70 k into the car.....OMG....but if the speed limit is 70 where or more to the point why do you need a car faster than a o6...its already overkill. yeah i know....just to say you can do it. out the box 0-60 in 3.5 and 11.5 1/4 aint bad for a Zo6 ot the Z1R i'm talking NA 427 7 liter motors here. Yeas those numbers have been done and beaten with change of tires....and the aaerodynamics have no issue ...it eaasily makes 200 in bone stock form...an cold air air filter system and slight tune pushes it well over 200.

SSC reached a max 275

One of the auto magazines did an article on that a couple of years back, and there was a smaller car ( Toyota? ) a guy had modified using two engines. The magazine's comment was, "Holy mother of God!" : )

a1964 plymoth fury was the fastest production car ever made it beat all times in the1/4 mile strate of the show room floor .
-
are you asking about top speed or fastest time in the shortest distence
-
MY CAR!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
Mr. Rod Saboury i.e. has got a nice street legal car and I do believe it can beat the BV. Such cars built can find in some areas... My own car not to forget: no brand - my own, custom designed and built from scratch and will run that speed. A custom engine powered twin screw supercharged produces over 2.000bhp - custom transmission and most other parts as well // 0-60mph 1sec, 0-100mph 3sec, 0-220mph 7sec. top speed above 250mph and street legal, and it can troughout changing boost/timing run with alcohol and will be even faster.
