This eeriely mimics my thought process on the topic of "quickest" production car: Is The Tesla Model S P100D Really The Quickest Production Car Ever?*

My message would be clearer if the included link was reviewed. I share your view that general "fast" is closer to top speed, while "quick" refers to acceleration.

That article also notes production cars, while the Buggatti Veyron is no longer in production. My comment on faster was an adjective referring to acceleration, mainly that to get a faster acceleration, we are at our limit without new tire grip levels, or without more downforce. Of course, aerodynamic downforce doesn't occur while stationary- but the 2J can adjust that.
