Many forum members assumed this car would be grabbed by Acura for testing and repair (like they did with a poor Ferrari 458 while developing the NSX), but this listing on Copart by Farmer’s Insurance suggests otherwise. The forum thread also claims that the owner already ordered a new one.
Must be nice to churn through the latest supercars like that! At least it was good enough after 7,000 miles to warrant a replacement. Let us know if you pick this up!
