It looks nothing like the current versions of the XJs. It almost looks like an XKR (on steroids)!

What's the story?

Simply: XJ220 was Jaguar's ultra-exclusive supercar. Was the fastest production car until the Mclaren F1. Still one of the most beautiful, beautiful, cars ever made.

If you see one. Take a picture. It'll likely be the last time you see one for a long time, if ever.

I was watching one of the R & M Auctions the other day, and a XJ220 went for, I believe around a $130,000.00 Which is low for that car. very seldom do they come up for sale. One in Hemmings last month and I think they were asking $150.000 With only 281 cars produced you were lucky to even see one.

Yes, that's it.

Seem like nice folks. They are about an hour's drive from my place. But it is definitely closer than Austin. Thanks.
