![Tony Stark Drives Acura NSX Roadster to The Avengers Red Carpet Premiere [Photos + Videos]](https://www.carscoops.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Acura-NSX-The-Avengers-Premiere-0.jpg)
The world premiere of Marvel’s big-budget The Avengers film at the El Capitan Theater in Hollywood on Wednesday gave us the chance to see Acura’s NSX Roadster in real life as actor Robert Downey Jr., aka Tony Stark, drove the one-off concept model on the red carpet.
As noted in one of our previous articles, while the custom-made roadster’s exterior looks closely follow the lines of the NSX Concept displayed at the Detroit Motor Show this past January, it’s a whole different story under the skin as the car utilizes the platform as well as the interior of a first generation NSX.
The two-seater model isn’t the only Acura model to star in the film as specially converted MDX crossovers and TL sedans were used in the movie by S.H.I.E.L.D. agents.
Being an official sponsor of the film, in addition to Downey’s arrival in the roadster, The Avengers stars Chris Evans (Captain America), Mark Ruffalo (The Hulk), Chris Hemsworth (Thor) and Jeremy Renner (Hawkeye) also arrived to the theater in a fleet of Acura models.
The new movie opens in theaters on Friday, May 4, 2012.
