Welcome to the Melbourne Crown casino

See Local DealsCasinos are lands of glitz, glamour and money. Naturally, they attract people with plenty of cash, who attract high-dollar merchandise in turn. So it only made sense to bring this NSX at the Melbourne Crown casino in Australia.
This particular NSX is not only pricey, but rare, since it's the only one in Australia. More are on their way, and they will go on sale on December 1, but for the time being, this is the only one in the country. As a result, there was more pressure to get the car into the casino than normal, and it was a task more difficult than driving a Ford Fiesta through a shopping mall.

The worst kind of sharp corner
Corners had to be harrowing. Especially with those sharp stone corners jutting out, waiting to bite into the paint.Find this deal in your area

It gets through with a little help from friends
It's a good thing the NSX's wide wing mirrors fold in, and that there were plenty of spotters to help lead the car through.Find this deal in your area

On the home stretch
Past the food court and down halls with boutiques, things got a bit easier thanks to wider walkways.Find this deal in your area

Home free
Eventually, the NSX wound its way to its destination, the base of a large staircase. A bit of back-and-forth maneuvering put it into its final display space. The car will remain on display for 10 days.Find this deal in your area
