Official Audi R8 / Iron Man TV spot
Spanish people have been granted an extra TV spot where the deal between Audi and Paramount Pictures is clearly shown (it’s also a webspecial in other countries). They exploit each other’s product. When Audi promotes its supercar, Iron Man gets some exposure; when a trailer is shown, the R8 appears. It’s Co-advertising at its best. The ad mixes footage from Iron Man and some recycled bits of the first Audi R8 (we covered it in January). It probably didn’t... Read More

Audi R8 Iron Man Limited Edition
digg_url = 'http://carsplusmovies.com/2008/03/05/audi-r8-iron-man-edition/'; 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... Read More
On our watch list: Iron Man (2008)
A sophisticated comic adaptation digg_url = 'http://carsplusmovies.com/2008/03/04/on-our-watch-list-iron-man-2008/'; To tell you the truth, it’s not often that we get excited about movies based on a comic book. Their quality is very uneven, and they tend to not cater enough to grown-ups, notably with hype commercial rock bands for soundtracks. But use AC/DC and Black Sabbath, hire a great actor such as Robert Downey Jr. for your lead character, write some good dialogues... Read More
