I personally would never get the XJ220 because of one thing, its sound. Ewww. And I somehow dislike the traditional british electrics (ie never properly functional). Except for the outside, I think the XJ220 has aged a lot.
After watching this video (well worth watching, BTW), my opinion of the car went down quite a bit ...

The EB110, I just love, so I can't offer an unbiased opinion
If you're after something really unique, perhaps a 550 Barchetta? Or an Aston Martin Virage 6.3? Zagato Vantage? Ferrari Venice? Porsche 959? Spyker? Caparo T1? Gumpert Apollo? MB CLK DTM? Lancia Stratos Stradale?
mmmh ... not sure even a single one of these is legal in the US ... damn.

^ wait..wasn't the XJR-15 the "worst handling car of its time" according to jeremy clarkson, who isn't really an authoroative reference, but in all honesty it was the least flattering thing i've ever seen. If you can find the video on kazaa, it has an XJR-15 and then a comparison to the mclaren F1.

CS is a future classic....

xj220 is something else. Seriously it took the Mclaren to "pip" it to the top of the pile. Yes it's old school and the steering wheel and wheels look goofy but it's the most amazing car ever from the UK in my opinion. too bad they never had the cash to do the 12 cylinder TT like they had planned. Instead it was a V6
