So, the only question is: How much is Rick Hendrix going to pay for it?

These large donations help to reduce their businesses taxable income with the plus bring you get a cool car out of it!
Yeah Hendrick didn't buy that Lexus but I'm sure he'll be the winner of the Vette...maybe Leno too?

My guess is 2 million, but I think Rick Hendrick will pay whatever it takes to have it in his collection.

Really?
Rick Hendricks sat stoic as a stone pillar after raising two fingers. Which raised the bid price on the Lexus LC500 to two million. You could see in his demeanor, he was saying don't screw with me. My pockets are deeper than yours and this is the sales price. Live with it. Were it me.

So I’ll ask the obvious question. Is this a production car? And then, has production started?

At least that's the way the IRS see's it.
Now, if he wants the car to promote his own business, then that's perfectly fine. As long as he doesn't try to deduct the cost of the car. (However, he COULD expense the cost thru advertising/marketing...)
