Fastest car ever was a twin-engine jet-powered la nd speed vehicle with a British pilot as the driver.

It drove at 760 miles per hour on two times runs on the Bonneville salt flats. You can see the pressure wave in the photographs as it breaks the sound barrier! THis vehicle had 100,000 horsepower in those jet engines.

Fastest street car now? The top of the line Corvette will do 186mph. There's a small firm in England that builds a car that gets 0 to 60 in about 3.9 seconds and has a top speed around 200 mph and costs $330,000. The Lamborghini and Ferrari Enzo are also fast. There's an American car, the "Saleen S7" out of Irvine, California that has 750hp, a top speed of 200mph and gets 0 to 60 in under 3 seconds -- it costs $700,000, though.

First of all I would like to address the fact that a Taurus isn't even considered a sports car, so why would you even put that in the same category as being the fastest car.....Based upon evidence the fastest production car at this time 2006 is none other the Bugatti Veyron....As for the Saleen S7 couldn't be labeled as the fastest because Saleen makes a twin turbo model of the S7 that still wouldn't be able to outrun the Veyron....

Since when does one contribute Taurus with being one of the fastest? Its only a 6 cylinder at best, and has less than 300 horses. For the longest time, the McLaren F1 blew everything out of the water with speeds of about 250 miles per hour. I think Lamborghini has that record now, but not sure. And I don't include jet powered cars, cause there's not too many gas stations with jet fuel to fill up once your empty.

Any Japanese or German or Korean car with 270HP-330HP can reach up to 155mph. Today, most V6 engines in Japanese cars make that power and reach that governed limited speed. 155mph. Any Porsche can easily reach 160mph. Even the slowest and cheapest, the Porsche Boxster. For American cars, you need 400HP cars to reach 150 mph easily. They need more power because they are usually less aerodynamic and heavier. Example: The 300HP Mustang GT only reaches 146mph. Honda S2000 Nissan 350z Mazda RX-8 and RX-7. Saturn Sky Redline Pontiac Solstice GXP Pontiac GTO Ford Mustang GT500 Hyundai Genesis Coupe Nissan Maxima New Honda Accord V6 and Nissan Altima V6 and Toyota Camry V6. Mitsubishi Lancer Evo or Eclipse GT Subaru Impreza WRX or Subaru Impreza WRX STI. VW R32 VW Passat V6.

You don't specify what kind of car, like sports car, fastest in the quarter mile, etc. In my opinion, the Testerosa would be the fastest car from take-off and at holding that speed. Real nice, but dangerous!

Fasted what? The quarter mile. top speed. Let me tall you there are several cars that will do about 200 miles ans hours. ( that's about it)
As for the quarter mild.. I think it is a toss up between Mustang and Corvette, with the Viper coming in Last
