Pretty close, 1999 Saab 9-3 7.2 15.5@92

 

How 'bout this

Yes it's a Yugo porto-potty

 

Depends how you define "production car". How about a Ford Model T?

 

My 1959 17 HP Fiat 600D. O-60: Thanksgiving. 1/4 mile: Christmas. (based on a Jan. 1 start date.)

 

Citroen 2CV or the original Beetle maybe?

 

don't you guys forget the fire truck, it will take more than 50 sec to get to the speed of 60 mph...

 

Isn't this rather ridiculous - if you want the slowest car then go back to the original vehicle built by Gottlieb Daimler in the 1800s, or similar. There are many vehicles that had top speeds in the order of 3-4mph and acceleration to match. There are also many specialised vehicles that are designed to operate within certain speed bands and are restricted to achieve this.

If you want to be serious about this then set a few parameters, i.e. how many wheels, passenger or commercial vehicle (e.g. 18 wheelers with a full load not allowed), engine capacity (Japan still produces many micro cars with engines around 300cc), etc., etc..

 

TRABANT!

 

'64 Beetle

0-60 29.5 secs
1/4 mile 23.3 @ 56mph



I'm sure that if they listed the '82 Volkswagon Diesel I owned, it would be down there too.

 

That would be the Renault 2VC that was actually made by Citroen would it
