Sadly, ASIMO is not for sale. Honda, which has built 20 ASIMOs, won't say how much it cost to develop, but the firm is putting them to tentative commercial use as a public relations gimmick. Honda is renting ASIMOs to four companies, including IBM Japan and a science museum in Tokyo, for reception duties at the circuit-scrambling price of $163,000 a year.
I would name it TalonBot and put it in the ring with Laurelin ;)
