Just like Tony Stark needs his “hot rod red” armor to gain superpowers, his Audi R8 needs a special suit to become a superhero of its own.
Based on the Audi R8 V12 TDI Le Mans, currently presented at the 2008 Geneva Motor Show, we concocted the Iron Man Edition. The two tone paint matches the Mark III armor built by Stark to fight evildoers, and the added protection, aerodynamic elements and horsepower help the part-time businessman/full-time hero in his task. With a prodigious torque (737 lb-ft) and 500 hp, it’s the perfect vehicle for Tony to get out of hairy situations when he doesn’t have his suit at hand.*
