Michael Jordan's New $65 Million Jet Draws Criticism Amid NASCAR Dispute

The NBA legend's purchase of a Gulfstream G650ER has sparked backlash over its environmental impact and timing amid legal issues with NASCAR.

Michael Jordan has acquired a Gulfstream G650ER, valued at approximately $65 million, featuring a custom paint job with his iconic Jumpman logo.
Fans have criticized the purchase due to its environmental impact, as the jet's delivery flights have already produced significant carbon emissions.
The jet's tail number, N236MJ, reflects Jordan's legacy with the number 23 and his six NBA championship titles.
Jordan's acquisition comes amid a legal battle involving his NASCAR team, 23XI Racing, highlighting the timing of his lavish expenditure.
Despite the criticism, Jordan's wealth, largely built from his successful partnership with Nike, allows him to afford such luxury items.
