In The Avengers, Robert Downey Jr. appeared alongside a dark red Acura NSX Roadster Concept, and today, that very same car is about to go under the auction hammer.
Acura has confirmed that this one-off NSX Roadster will be showcased at this week’s Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah. The vehicle will appear as part of the festival’s annual fundraising event, held at the Grand Hyatt Deer Valley.
The auction will be hosted on the Cars & Bids platform, which has been selected as the official auction partner for this year. Acura stated that all proceeds from the sale will be donated to a charity chosen by the winning bidder. In addition, the company plans to make an extra contribution to the Sundance Institute, continuing its support for independent filmmakers and emerging creative voices.
Although the NSX Roadster’s exterior resembles the second-generation NSX, the car is actually built on the chassis of a first-generation 1991 Acura NSX, which has accumulated approximately 405,555 kilometers of use.
The vehicle was extensively reworked with a handcrafted body made from resin and fiberglass, reshaped to match the concept version seen in the film. Ride height was lowered by 2 inches, and 18-inch wheels were fitted to complete the transformation. Inside the cabin, aside from a pair of aftermarket seats, the overall layout remains largely faithful to the original first-generation NSX
