As mentioned, they made the Ju 88S:

S-1 (with BMW 801G + GM1), top speed of 610 kph @ 8000 m
S-3 (with Jumo 213A + GM1), top speed of 615 kph @ 8500 m

Also:

Do 217M (with DM 603A), top speed 560 kph @ 6000 m

No forward-firing armament for these however, but there were of course the Me 210 and 410...

I'd say that Ju 88A or C (with Jumo 211s) were not "fast bombers" anymore after 1940-41, as they weren't that fast even then.
