The iconic black Ferrari previously owned by former Chicago Bulls superstar Michael Jordan has been found after disappearing for over 15 years.
MJ, widely considered to be the greatest ever when it comes to basketball, has hundreds of memorable moments and owns a huge chunk of hoops lore. As such, some of the things he was known to possess during his heyday remain vivid in memory.
Among those is the 1992 Ferrari 512 TR he was seen arriving in for a playoff game in Chicago that year. Jordan appeared in several other photographs with the car before selling it in 1995.
The Ferrari was acquired by businessman Chris Gardner, who inspired Will Smith’s ‘The Pursuit of Happyness.” He changed the famous license plate from “M-Air-J” to “Not MJ” and was seen driving around Chicago with it on a few occasions.

The iconic car disappeared after that. It was last seen in 2010 when it was put up for auction, but the buyer put it in storage after he was diagnosed with a rare form of bone cancer.
Somehow, supercar specialists ‘Curated’ managed to track it down, and it turns out both the car and owner are still around.
“Finding this car felt like solving a mystery that’s haunted us for years. Everyone knew the plate. Everyone knew the legend. But no one knew where it went. Until now,” Curated co-founder John Temerian said.
Check out the video below:
The famous whip is said to have a 4.9L flat engine hitting 428 horsepower and 362 LB-FT of torque under the hood while boasting a 0-to-60 top speed of 195 mph in under five seconds.
Definitely seems like the car you’d want to buy if you were Michael Jordan in 1992.
