<P> The Koenigsegg CCR recorded a top speed of 387.866 km / h at the Nardo testing facility on 28 February 2005 . This speed eclipsed the previous record of 355 km / h held by the McLaren F1 . The record was supervised and accredited by Guinness World Records at the time and a certificate recognising this achievement was awarded . The certificate cites the CCR as "The fastest production car...which achieved a speed of 387.866 km / h over a measured kilometre at the Nardo Prototipo proving ground, Italy" </P> <P> The CCR and it's predecessor, the identical - but - lesser - powered CC8S were produced in a total of 21 units (15 CCR, 6 CC8S). Although it was recognised by Guinness as the world's fastest production car at the time of the record, a total production run under 25 units does not qualify the CCR for inclusion on the table below . </P> <P> The current Guinness World Records title holder, the Bugatti Veyron Super Sport, was certified for the average top speed achieved on a two - way run, registering 431.072 km / h (267.856 mph). Bugatti made 5 Veyrons named the World Record Edition out of the initial production run of 30 Super Sports, all of which would be able to achieve this speed if the limiter was removed . With the limiter the Veyron SS goes 415 km / h (257.87 mph). Bugatti did not sell any with the limiter removed . Initially, when challenged by Hennessey, Guinness decided the Bugatti was ineligible because the test car was deemed as being modified . Bugatti sought a review of the decision and Guinness, after a review by a panel of experts, considered removing the limiter was not a modification and thereby making the car eligible for their publication . To this day, even though the Bugatti Chiron is believed to have a top speed of around 463 km / h (288 mph), it is not verified, and with the limiter it has a non-verified top speed of 261 mph (420 km / h). As of August 2017, the Veyron SS is still classified as the fastest production car in the world . </P> <P> In 2014, a Hennessey Venom GT was recorded at 435.31 km / h (270.49 mph), but as the run was in one direction only and only 12 cars (+ 1 prototype) were ever made, it does not qualify under the Guinness Book of Records or this list's criteria as the world's fastest production car . Guinness accepted it as production car, however . </P>
