Will There Ever Be A Car As Pretty As The XJ 220....

MMM, I dont know. I hate the look of most modern super cars such as the enzo, quite like the vanquish S, but im old school for the XJ 220, DB7, F40... Never a fan of the F1.
 
I agree, thats one of the sexiest cars in existance. Much better looking then S7 BTW.

But to me, its like a myth. I've never seen one, I doubt that I ever will, and so - I honestly don't believe that they even exist. Just something you read about.
 
The xj220 is still faster then a Zonda 7.3, despite having a V6 turbo charged engine (about 520 BHP), the Zonda has a V12 7.3 merc egnine giving it 540 i think, and it still loses in a drag race and top speed..

I hear that they wanted to make the 220 4WD and put a V12 in it, but they could afford either.
 
Saved up and bought one in GT4, crome red mmmmm, got it up to 800 BHP, but its nothing on my SLR, but I still take it out for a spin.

oh crap. forgot GT was Gran Tourismo. thought it meant something else. but now i have areason to rob you of your ps2 and a copy of GT4.
 
You know they have a whole bunch of NIB XJ 220 in a warehouse somewhere in England. Yes, it looks niiiiice, but it's a bitch to control, in the GT series.
 
i saw one at the washington auto show in the mid 90s, but i was like 8 years old then and don't remember much and no pics 🙁

 
The XJ220 is much better in real life than in pictures. This being said, I still think there are better looking vehicles.
