Actually, "kilometer" should, according to international standardization, be noted by "km". Also, "per" is an English particle. To express it, should be used "/". So, ISO notation should be "km/h".
And, according to the reliability rumors, the Veyron can do 407,8km/h... but not for long

Would you care to specify? Including make, model and top speed.
Since you pointed out that there are way faster ones in production than the ones being talked about, it made curious.

As Barabus is a tuner..it already takes the completed mercedes car and does it's own modifications. The veyron is the fastest production car in the world no modifications..with the exception of maybe the Konseigg (can not spell it)

are you confusing Barabus with Brabus?
the Barabus TKR is an italian car.It has a twin-turbo 6l V8 with 1005bhp. 0-60mph in 1.67sec top whack of 270mph...The Koenigsegg CCX had a Ford Mustang's 4.2l V8 earlier, but it has now been replaced by Koenigsegg's very own 4.7l V8 with twin rotrex superchargers...it has done 400kph or km/h.

My mistake..I thought you were talking about the italian tuner..now has this speed been confirmed from a major car magazine or is this the company saying this stuff?

dunno...t think they re just claiming the top speed...if it had been tested ..say at Nardo or Ehra-Lessien, it wud ve been huge! and definitely head line auto-news.But its one helluva claim...!we ll have to wait and see.
