I actually think XJ220 is coolor than the F1. concealed headlights make it look really intimidating.

Supposedly they used a GM V8 to test the drive-train or something before hooking it up to the car (i'm not sure).

Nonsense.

What they did to test the BMW V12 was stick it in an Ultima, a then-available kit car chassis which is usually fitted with a GM engine for cheap power reasons. Pic related, that exact thingy:
