1993 Jaguar XJ220 heads for Scottsdale auction

Come Jan. 19-23, 2011, a 1993 Jaguar XJ220 will be available at the Russo and Steele Collector Automobile Auction in Scottsdale, Ariz.

Produced by Jaguar in collaboration with Tom Walkinshaw Racing from1992 to 1994, the XJ220 can achieve 217 mph and run from 0 to 60 mph in 3.8 seconds. It still ranks seventh on the list of the fastest supercars of all time.

And with only 278 models built, the XJ220 is as rare as it is fast. Fewer than 15 were imported to the United States.
