Tony Stark switches to an Acura for the Avengers!

I love how so many people know so much about shit they don't have a clue about.
To the people who think it looks like shit, if the engine said Zonda instead of Honda, you would all be shitting yourselves in excitement.
It looks like an R8? So fucking what? I could find five other cars it resembles too. It's a sports car with distinct lines and a low profile. For some reason you've lost your passion for Acuras and are bitter. Go to Audizine and be happy.

Grow up.
I was a Honda fanboy for a LONG time. Most of us in this thread once were the same. Honda/Acura is generally being bashed on due to soooooooo many reasons.
Again, you need to grow up man.

He's full of shit. Acura doesn't have a running chassis to build that car on ... So where did it come from?
Bottom line is they took a R8, stripped the body off it and put some ridiculous Japanese body on it and an Acura badge. Since Acura signed the exclusive marketing for the SuperFriendsLeagueofJusticeHall movies they couldn't put the R8 in it ... Hence the one-off body IMO.

Well, we all know he talks of his ass more than ace ventura.
Fact is...cars like this are made by 3rd party companies for movies all the time.
Example:
Who made Bumblebee for the 1st transformers movie? Saleen...using GM molds and GTO underpinnings. Provided by....GM.
So Acura probably reached out to some shop familiar with them...provided a chassis (nsx, etc) and and parts and it was fabricated for the film.
I'm sure actual details will come out at some point.
Either way, still fugly

Said the 26 year old owner of a Fast and Furious "Zoomy Zoomy Boom" Mazda. Thank you for giving me something to smile about all morning.
Acura made GREAT cars for 22 years and only recently fell off the map. I still remember the 22 years of great cars, but most people only want to focus on the last 3. When all is said and done, Acura will go down as one of the best car brands ever.

For many of us, it was Acura itself that quelled our enthusiasm for the brand. Nevertheless, last time I checked, there's still room in this community for AUTO ENTHUSIASTS of all types; unless you usurped Ron A and no one told us about it.

I haven't changed. Acura has changed.
Granted they did finally come out with a TSX wagon, something I've been on record saying I'd buy if they ever bothered. And I did. Still, I think their brand needs some retuning and more variety.
Now if they'd come out with something remotely sporty I'd buy one too. As of right now I'm just going to buy that 'perfect' S2K once I find it...
