Yeah, nice article apart from the fact that the info on the XJR-15 is totally wrong! This car was VERY MUCH released and they actually run a 1-make racing series for a year. After that, each of the 20 or so owners had the chance to have his/her car made street-legal (which was not very difficult as TWR who developed it had made provisions for). I have somewhere a british car mag that did a sort of test-drive and reported that it was a world apart from the XJ220 much more raw and nimble and certainly nothing like you describe it. However as with the XJ the timing was bad, if a car like this (or similar taking into account recent advancements) were to appear today I assure you it would be a different story...
