New York Auto Show: Visit for the reveals, stay for the Rad

If you're local to the 2022 New York International Auto Show but on the fence about going due to its somewhat ho-hum OEM presence this year, Radwood is offering a little extra incentive. Its display on the show floor includes a swath of privately owned and properly Rad iron for your enthusiastic perusal.

By sheer quantity, the collection on the floor leans a bit toward the latter half of the "Rad" era (meaning '90s rather than '80s), but a couple of heavy hitters from the legwarmers-and-spandex days make appearances as well. Here are a few highlights:

Jaguar Sport XJR-15

This is a rare bird indeed. The Jaguar Sport XJR-15 was built around a Le-Mans-winning race chassis. Not a Jaguar in the strictest sense, this supercar was produced in extremely limited numbers. The body was designed by future McLaren F1 co-creator Peter Stevens. It packed a 6.0-liter Jaguar V12 pushing 450 horsepower (pony cars were rocking half that around the turn of the decade, you'll remember) and hit 60 in under 4.0 seconds on the way to a top speed just north of 190 mph.
