World's fastest cars ever in history!! (1900-2012) - from Model T to Bugatti EB 16.4 Veyron
This is a collection of short videos showcasing the world's fastest production cars in history!
The production car in context of this list is a car of which not less that 20 were originally built by its manufacturer to the same or faster specification than the record setting example. This list uses the same definition as the List of automotive superlatives for the sake of consistency and because the term production car is otherwise undefined
Comparing claimed speeds of the "fastest car(s) in the world", especially in historical cases, is difficult due to there being no standardized method for determining the top speed, nor a central authority to verify any such claims. The current title Guinness World Records holder, the Bugatti Veyron Super Sport, was certified as such for the average top speed achieved on a two-way run, registering 431 km/h (268 mph) but only 5 of the World Record model were made.
The List:
1) Ford Model T
2) Ford Model A
3) Mercedes-Benz 'S' Type Sports Tourer
4) Mercedes-Benz 300SL
5) Aston Martin DB4 GT Zagato
6) Iso Rivolta Grifo A3/L 327
7) Lamborghini Miura P400
8) Ferrari 365 GTB/4 Daytona
9) Ferrari 288 GTO
10) Porsche 959
11) Ferrari F40
12) Bugatti EB110 GT
13) Jaguar XJ220
14) McLaren F1
15) SSC Ultimate Aero Twinturbo
16) Bugatti EB 16.4 Veyron Super Sport

OFFICIAL Top 10 Fastest Production Cars In The World 2013-2014 UPDATED V6.0
Hello! Loucam08 here. Here's my new edition of T10FPCITW. It took my quite a lot of time to do this - 5 days in fact - so this isn't just a quickly thrown together powerpoint like /watch?v=VNQv6v_T_LU (trollface)
I have to admit I have been a bit optimistic with the previous version, by listing modified cars and cars that probably will never exist. But fear not! That's why I made this video.
Just in case you think some of these cars don't exist, I've got sources for this video.
This video has a very soulful touch that only the biggest car enthusiasts will feel. This video has a sense of emotion about it. Even though I have no idea what I going on about, you may feel it. Probably not, but there's a chance.

The Worst Car In the History Of The World - Top Gear - BBC
Top Gear: The Worst Car in the History of the World will be released on DVD, Blu-Ray and digital download on Monday 19th November 2012
Get your copy here - http://www.bbcshop.com/search?q=top+gear+worst+car+dvd&cm_mmc=bbc+shop-_-TG-_-youtube-_-Tg+worst+car+dvd
Jeremy Clarkson and James May will present their opinions on The Worst Car in the History of the World in a brand new, all exclusive Top Gear DVD.
Jeremy and James travel to the North of England to name and shame the most rubbish cars in the entire WORLD. It's a labour-intensive affair, filled with heated debates, giant cranes, James being locked in his own car boot and...Jeremy being tied to a tree.
But don't be fooled, it's not all about terrible cars -- to appreciate the stinkers you have to revel in some good ones too -- like the 4.5 litre Ferrari 458 Spider, Toyota's GT86 and the £340,000 Lexus LFA running shoulders with a Mercedes SLS AMG.
As they are up North, the boys invite The Stig's Yorkshire cousin to be a guest driver. Putting his whippet to one side he throws the BMW M5 round a gymkhana course before testing out a couple of Transatlantic challengers with Jeremy and James. Things, you won't be surprised to hear, don't go according to plan.
The debate about The Worst Car in the History of the World continues while the boys play a few rounds of golf. But that doesn't go according to plan either. They even put their own cars -- past and present --into the reckoning. That ends badly too.
The rest of the time up North is spent arguing over the great and the awful from Peugeot, Ford, Mahindra, FSO, Alfa Romeo, Rolls Royce, Porsche, Citroen, Saab and many more.
There's also a special surprise fate in store for the car picked as the biggest loser...

My 1925 Ford Model T - How to Start & How to Drive
Enthusiasts Website: http://www.fordmodelt.net/
Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/modeltford/
Update 10 Aug 2012:
My Model T has been fully restored, and I've just purchased a pair of carriage lights which the car was missing. Updated video to come.
Update:
"I MADE A MISTAKE!"
55psi only applies to clincher tyres on earlier Model T's. Since mine is a 1925 model and has split rims and balloon tyres, the correct tyre pressure is 35psi.
----------------------------------------------------
I imported my 1925 Ford Model T from the USA, not far from Detroit, Michigan where it was built.
In this video I demonstrate the T's unusual controls and how they all work, I show you how to start a Model T, and I take you on a short drive at the end.
The Model T was manufactured between 1908 and 1927, and was know by various names including Tin Lizzie, Flivver, T‑Model Ford, or just 'T'.
The Model T set 1908 as the historic year that the automobile became popular. It is generally regarded as the first affordable automobile, the car that opened travel to the common middle-class American; some of this was because of Ford's innovations, including assembly line production instead of individual hand crafting.
On May 26, 1927, Henry Ford watched the 15 millionth Model T Ford roll off the assembly line at his factory in Highland Park, Michigan.

ThrustSSC - Fastest Car ever, PERIOD. 762+MPH.
This is the Car, "Thrust SSC". It is one of the most incredible human achievements, EVER. However you don't hear about it in school or anywhere else. Watch this video, look at how intense and insane this video is. My turbo Hayabusa maxed out at 240MPH. This thing is going over that before he even turned his freaking engines on. Just absolutely insane.

Performance Power Racing Re-Sets the Guinness World Records holding for Fastest Standing Mile-Street Car at 283.232 mph
Johnny Bohmer Owner of Performance Power Racing and Driver of the World Famous BADD GT, along with Matt Lundy, Lead Design Tech, piloted the 1700+ horse power Ford GT down NASA's Shuttle Landing Facility Runway this week setting a new Guinness World Record at 283.232 mph in the Standing Mile. The Standing Mile is an event in which a vehicle, from a dead stop, accelerates completely through the one mile mark.
"Automotive Racing is the perfect channel to introduce some of the new technologies we are working on in to the main stream market. The Pandalloy™ Aluminum Alloys Project through Performance Power Materials, Inc is very exciting. The multiple series of Aluminums are vastly outperforming what is on the market today and we are excited to see how far we can push the limits of performance, and more importantly efficiency to have a positive impact worldwide. We break records to prove that these systems and designs really do function and can be implemented on vehicles of all types." said Johnny Bohmer.
Performance Power Racing is a West Palm Beach based Research and Development Company working directly with Pratt & Whitney on a new high specific strength, high temperature tolerant, Aluminum Alloy branded Pandalloy™. Performance Power has successfully transitioned and implemented Aerospace Technology in to the Automotive World. Parts were specifically designed and manufactured out of Pandalloy™ Aluminum Alloys for the World Record Setting Ford GT. Performance Power successfully proved that Aerospace Technology can be effectively used to lower emissions, increase fuel economy, and lower a vehicles carbon footprint through their performance testing at NASA's Kennedy Space Center Shuttle Landing Facility.
"Our entire team has worked very hard to get here and we are proud to be able to put an American car in the record books as the fastest street car in the world." Mr. Bohmer said about the achievement. "By NASA allowing us access to a one of a kind facility, we are given the opportunity to explore these technologies and share their benefits. An immense amount of research and development went in to this 3 year project and we are just scratching the surface of where these systems can be utilized outside of the racing arena."
