Iron Man Trades in R8 for an Acura

Post by boost_leeroy »

Ironman trades in his Audi R8 Spyder for the Acura Concept Roadster
Looks like Tony Stark has a new ride, and New York plates to boot

Looks like Tony Stark has found himself a new ride and images have leaked onto the web from the set in New York's Central Park. Many thought at first from former images that the new roadster spotted here was the face-lifted Audi R8, but in fact it is the Acura Concept. Acura's Gary Robinson said the following to autoblog:

"As you may know, Acura has been in the Marvel Comics Universe films as the official car of their fictional law enforcement agency called S.H.I.E.L.D. That relationship continues for The Avengers. The open-top sports car that was photographed yesterday is a one-off, fictional car that was made just for the movie and will not be produced.

That said, as you may also know, our CEO has said publicly that we are studying the development of a new sports car, but we can't say any more about it at this time."

Could be the next S2k. At least it actually looks good and away from Honda co. current design language.

What Honda should be doing is a road version for the HSV-010 [wallbash]

In my book they should, because presently it seems like they have started to live in Toyota's area code of boring and ugly.
