The original NSX, which began production in 1990, was Honda's budget supercar (marketed under Acura in the United States) that gave Italy's finest pasta rockets a run for their money. At least until 2005, when Honda decided enough was enough and axed the car from their lineup. However, a new report suggests that the Acura convertible seen in the new Avengers movie, and driven by none other than Tony Stark (better known as Iron Man), will be put into production in the next 24 months. Thanks to Jalopnik, we have a good idea of what the new car will be like. Expect a gasoline-hybrid system as well as all wheel drive. We think it'll be similar to BMW's i8 Vision Efficient Dynamics concept car, which is also going into production by 2014. We're hoping Honda does things right and that this car will be a true successor the now legendary NSX.
