Sure they deal with a lot of expensive cars and even wreck some of them. Nothing that would cost this much though:
During a filming of the Korean Top Gear, an AH1 Cobra helicopter was being used to film a Corvette in the Arizona desert, when the pilot lost control. Amazingly, both helicopter pilots were treated at the scene and walked away unharmed.
