I cannot see how this random (why 2014) list of monuments to arrested development and conspicuous consumption is in any way deserving of an an article. TheLongTone ( talk) 14:11, 6 November 2017 (UTC)
- Delete Collection of facts about cars with little or no independent verification. It seems some of the cars are ranked purely on claims of top speeds by the producers. The ranking is just a reproduction of the first source (which lacks reliability), effectively becoming a mirror of that article and giving it credence by being on WP. To be meaningful, such list would contain independently verified tests under controlled and comparable conditions. Some of the wordings also seem quite promotional. Therefore deletion on the basis of WP:NOTRS, WP:SOAP

- Delete Not sure whats promotional about it, but it sure is random, and based on primary sources. Given that we a perfectly good article at Fastest cars in the world (actually that’s a redirect to Production car speed record) this seems slightly indiscriminate.

- Strong delete per Dysklyver above. Night fury 16:36, 6 November 2017 (UTC)
- Delete per all the above. Lugnuts Fire Walk with Me 18:29, 6 November 2017 (UTC)
- Delete. Mostly self published sources from the vehicle manufacturers themselves. WP:NOTMIRROR also applies. Ajf773 ( talk) 19:46, 6 November 2017 (UTC)
- Delete. Unnecessary article creation about fastest cars in the world in 2014. In fact, Wikipedia doesn't have a article list of Speedest cars or any other vehicle lists by considering each and every calendar years. The content in the article is also not reliable.
