Iron Man 2 mostly served as a reminder that Tony Stark is kind of a dick, a sentiment The Avengers will only reinforce when Stark arrives in this poorly disguised Acura NSX replacement. It's another reminder to Acura's fanboys they'll probably never get one . Handsome dick.
Photos from the set of The Avengers show Tony Stark 's tossed aside his pedestrian Audi R8 for an R8-like mid-engined sports car from Acura that doesn't exist but looks like a modern NSX — probably because Acura has an explosive tie-in with all SHIELD movies .
While Acura insists this is just a one-off and has no production intent all we can see is NSX. NSX. Scarlett Johansson. NSX.
