The Jaguar Xj220 is one of the forgotten super cars and it was produced in 1992 by Jaguar. This super car was the fastest car at that time. The vehicle features a 3.5 L V6 twin-turbo engine, which generates 542 horsepower at 7200 rpm. It has a 6-speed manual transmission, reaching 60 mph in 3.8 seconds and a top speed of 217 mph, an amazing speed for 1992. A total of 281 Jaguar XJ220 were produced and the original price was around $650,000. As of 2009, this car is worth around $150,000.
Many potential buyers put up a deposit of $80,000 USD to be on the waiting list to purchase this car. Since the production of this car was very limited (220 units per year and 350 max), many prospective buyers intend to purchase and sell this car right afterward to make an instant profit. However, due to many complications and a declined in the economy, many customers were unhappy and some even sued Jaguar.
