Correct, although I think the ones (all 10) imported to the US top out at 217mph due to gearing changes. Slow poke.

What did they say, fastest production car? The McLaren F1 is no longer in production, therefore it doesnt qualify for the title.

The Mclaren was never a production car. There's quantity requirements to production.


The Z06 is the fastest production car in the world, but it's slower than the Viper. Viper's not production.
