Considering the level of anticipation that surrounded the unveiling of Mercedes-AMG's Project One hypercar, we'd be lying if we said we didn't see this coming.

Spotted on German marketplace Mobile is an AMG Project One for sale. Considering all 275 copies of AMG's F1-car-for-the-street are said to be spoken for, what we have here is likely an opportunistic—I mean, enterprising—would-be Project One owner looking to make a quick profit off of their proverbial spot in line. The scalper in question is asking for €4.51 million ($5.22 million) for the chance to own Merc's 1,000-horsepower hypercar. That's more than double its original sticker price of $2.4 million.
