   Technically "lightspeed, "hypersapce", and "Warp speed" (among other   
   phrases) are all simply references to faster than light travel. Since we   
   don't actually know any real details as to the speeds the ships go or the   
   distances and timeframes they travel, it's impossible to say which   
   starship is faster.   
      
   On a theoretical level, the Enterprise is an official Government-type   
   vessel and the Millennium Falcon is a highly modified smugglers freighter   
   ... so if you consider the Enterprise to be a "police vehicle"  and the   
   Flacon to be a "criminal vehicle", then it's likely the Falcon is faster   
   since the criminals always have better equipment than the Government.  :-)

   Plus how the previous owner(s) treated it ("one old lady only drove it on   
   Sundays) / well maintained and whether it's been in any accidents to cause   
   structural damage.
