Superhero Supercar Returns: Acura NSX Roadster from Marvel’s The Avengers to Appear at Monterey Car Week – AutoMart Canada

• One-of-a-kind supercar from Marvel’s “The Avengers”
• Movie car was designed at Acura Design Studio in Los Angeles
• Styling inspired by second-generation NSX Concept and built on a first-generation NSX
• Acura plans to auction the Acura NSX Roadster for charity in 2026

Acura today announced that the Acura NSX Roadster famously driven in Marvel’s “The Avengers” the highest grossing movie of 2012, will make its first public appearance in more than a decade during Monterey Car Week, the world’s top gathering of automotive and motorsports enthusiasts. The one-off superhero supercar will appear at The Quail, A Motorsports Gathering on Aug. 15, as Acura celebrates the 35th anniversary of the first generation NSX.

Acura plans to auction off the one-of-a-kind piece of movie memorabilia next year, with proceeds going to charity.  Acura will begin accepting hand raisers at Monterey Car Week for those interested in getting a chance to bid on the Acura NSX Roadster next year.

The Acura NSX Roadster was created specifically for the blockbuster production with styling inspired by the second-generation NSX Concept first shown at the 2012 North American International Auto Show. The roadster was designed by a team at the Acura Design Studio in Los Angeles led by then Acura Creative Director, Dave Marek, and remains exactly as it appeared on screen 13 years ago and featuring the “Stark 33” license plate.

Acura will showcase the concept roadster at The Quail, alongside significant production examples of the NSX—including a 1995 NSX-R and 1999 Zanardi Edition—as well as the all-new RSX Prototype, which previews the brand’s next-generation all-electric premium performance SUV.

As a project vehicle, the Acura NSX Roadster was built by Trans FX in Oxnard, California. The hand-crafted resin and fiberglass body was fitted to a first-generation NSX along with a 2-inch suspension drop, 18-inch wheels, and aftermarket seats. A well-used 1991 model with 252,000 miles on the odometer served as the foundation for the transformation.

“We knew it would have to be a reliable vehicle for filming, not just a static display, and we couldn’t come up with anything that would be more reliable than an original Acura NSX,” said Marek, executive advisor at Acura.
