Not only has The Avengers scored the highest opening gross record, but it also features a special edition Honda Motors design at the end!
According to Autoblog, The Acura NSX Roadster (Acura is the Luxury Line of Honda Motors), featured in the above picture, was actually built PRIOR to the finalization of the NSX design and the announcement that Honda Motors would be ressurecting the NSX line.
So, interestingly enough, the car used in the film was not built from scratch, but off the body of a 1992 Acura NSX with a custom body frame built around it! According to the Atlantic Wire, "Underneath the sleek body panels of the NSX film car sits an original, fully-functional 1992 Acura NSX with more than 250,000 miles on it. TFX simply stripped the original NSX of all its body panels, save for the doors, and built the concept NSX around it. The front panels are made from fiberglass while the rear panels are milled epoxy resin. Cladding was added to the doors so they matched the look of the rest of the car."
Be sure to go check out The Avengers, in theaters now, and lay your eyes on a brand new 1992 Acura NSX Roadster!
There is Tony Stark himself (Robert Downey, Jr) driving the vehicle!
