Michael Jordan was 'blown away' by insane $3million rare hypercar that only '45 of were made'
Michael Jordan has owned an impressive array of cars over the years but one incredibly rare hypercar worth a cool $3 million left the NBA legend simply 'blown away'.
With a net worth estimated this year by Forbes to be a colossal $3.5bn, Jordan has the financial ability to pretty much buy any car on the planet which he wants.
That is thanks to a career on the basketball court which spanned around two decades and much of which was spent with the Chicago Bulls as Jordan elevated himself to being a cultural icon.
The now retired Jordan is a six-time NBA Champion following his time with the Bulls, also being crowned the MVP in the NBA Finals a total of six times.

He was also named the NBA's Most Valuable Player overall on five instances after playing for the Bulls and the Washington Wizards in a remarkable career.
His net worth was also boosted by his exploits away from the basketball court, which have been highlighted through his memorable partnership with Nike on his Air Jordan trainers.
And MJ has graced both the big and small screen through the 1996 movie Space Jam and being the focus of the Emmy-winning documentary series The Last Dance in 2020, which appeared on internet streaming service Netflix.
Though his career on and off the court, Jordan has amassed quite the car collection.
As highlighted in the past by GQ, Jordan has several sports cars in a rather large collection he owns.
These include a Chevrolet Corvette C4, a Porsche 930 Turbo Cabriolet, a Toyota Land Cruiser J80, a Ferrari 512TR, a 40th anniversary edition Chevrolet Corvette ZR1, a Mercedes W140 S600 Coupe, a Porsche 993 Turbo S, an Aston Martin DB7 Volante, a Bentley Continental GT, a Cadillac XLR-V, a McLaren-Mercedes SLR 722, and a 23XI Racing Toyota.
He even has a very rare version of the Bugatti Veyron, which famously has 1,000bhp thanks to a W16 engine.
But another rare hypercar which Jordan owns blew the the basketball GOAT away.
That machine is the Hennessey Venom F5 Roadster, which cost $3 million, is designed to reach 300mph and only 45 of them have been built.
MJ received his back in 2023 and an insider told the New York Post what his reaction was when receiving the hypercar.
The insider said: "He was blown away. Nothing is as intense and fully engaging as this car.
"Some hypercars are built for luxury, but the Hennessey is out and out power and performance."
