Earlier this week, Michael Jordan made headlines by acquiring a custom Hennessey Venom F5 Roadster for a hefty price tag of $3.5 мιllιon. The Venom F5 Roadster touted as an exclusive mid-engine hypercar designed to surpass 300 mph and deliver unmatched performance, has been a focal point on the Hennessey website.

In a notable event, the 60-year-old basketball legend had the privilege of enjoying a ride in his new acquisition, accompanied by John Hennessey, the founder, and CEO of Hennessey. As of May 2023, Jordan’s estimated net worth stands at $5 мιllιon. John Hennessey commemorated the occasion on Instagram, sharing, “Today was a remarkable day. It’s a true honor to craft a special Venom F5 for an extraordinary friend 🐐.”

Current NBA betting odds have the Denver Nuggets as the leading favorites for the championship, with the Miami Heat following closely behind, according to several sportsbooks.

Of greater significance, Michael Jordan’s newly added Venom F5 holds the distinction of being one of just 30 models ever produced. Hennessey proudly asserts that this vehicle is the ultimate “world’s fastest convertible,” with its speed surpassing the existing record set by the Hennessey Venom GT Spyder, which clocked in at 265.6 mph.

The design of the two-seater Roadster closely resembles that of the Venom F5 coupe. Under its hood, the F5 Roadster boasts a twin-turbocharged 6.6-liter ‘Fury’ V8 engine, boasting an impressive horsepower rating of 1,817. This powerhouse engine can generate a maximum torque of 1,617 nm and achieves an astounding maximum rpm of 8,000.
