If you click my profile you will see the 2001 USGP helmet that MS wore. The helmet was given to the track after the race and sold for over 50K. |

This is a recent article found online. Imagine trying to trade in one of these helmets at a dealer for a 328.

BERLIN (Reuters) - A German obsessed with Formula One motor racing champion Michael Schumacher has been fined for stealing his 50,000-euro ($49,360) helmet, a court said on Friday.
The 53-year-old man, who was not named, handed the bright red helmet to a priest two days after he stole it from the manufacturer. He told police he idolized the five times world champion.
The court ordered the man, who is undergoing psychiatric treatment, to pay 2,000 euros to a charity and gave him a suspended jail sentence.
The Schubert manufacturing company was checking the helmet after Schumacher crashed while wearing it during a test drive in Barcelona in January.
The theft did not deprive Schumacher of head protection because he has eight helmets.
