Acura NSX #001 sells for $1.2 million
Autoblog 8 hours ago
[Broken External Image]When the new Acura NSX hits showrooms in the Spring, it will cost at least $156,000 in "base" spec, or as much as $205k fully loaded. But at the Barrett-Jackson auction in Scottsdale Saturday, one notable buyer paid a record $1.2 million for the privilege of ordering the very first one. That works out to a good six or seven times the list price, but fortunately it's all going to a good cause. The winning bid for the very first production example of the new Acura NSX was placed by none other than Rick Hendrick, a man best known for his NASCAR team but also for other projects like the modified Jeeps his company is pitching to the US Army.

There is an Acura NSX down the street from that sells for $39,000.00. It now seems like a really good bargain. :)

That's the older body style; Honda (aka Acura) stopped selling and producing the NSX some time ago; they are just bringing it back; and what a beautiful car it is.
Rick also bought the rights to the first Z06 2015 Corvette when it came out for $1million (the first one off the production line).
When BJ Auctions sells these specialty "first of" cars it's always for some charity; he uses it as a write off.
Besides the NASCAR teams, Rick also owns a BUNCH of car dealerships, he has a monstrous car collection, plus he does a lot of charity involvement, and owns a number of other businesses.

It was in Reservoir Dogs- (Harvey Keitel-) think it lost money from day 1 i'e cost more to make than selling price- at the time thought it was better looking than the 'vett
