Ayrton Senna NSX auction

Entities: RM Sotheby's · Honda NSX · Honda Motor Co. · Ayrton Senna · 2003 Honda NSX‑R

Overview

In late July 2026, the original first‑generation Acura (Honda) NSX that belonged to three‑time Formula 1 champion Ayrton Senna was announced for auction, drawing attention to the car’s historic role in supercar development. A week later, RM Sotheby’s confirmed the auction of a red 1991 Honda NSX gifted to Senna, estimating a sale price of 2.45‑3.92 million zł (500‑800 k GBP). The same notice also mentioned a 2003 NSX‑R that, after an extensive factory‑approved restoration, failed to attract a winning bid at an Italian historic‑car auction, highlighting the market’s high expectations and occasional mismatches for such rare models.
