Clint's car?  
Today I just happened to go past a bookstore and just happened to buy the tie-in comic Fury's Big Week (which I'm going to use most of, and ignore other bits, but anyway). One of the panels had Clint driving a car, and given he got woken up in the middle of the night and told to drive, I'm going to guess that it's actually his.

Also, it doesn't exactly seem like a SHIELD company car...



My question is: anyone have an idea what kind of car it is? I've done some poking about and looking at cars, so my guess is possibly an old Pontiac, or maybe an old Thunderbird, but I'm the opposite of a car person, so I have noooooo clue.

Any ideas?

Pretty sure it was one of the new Acura sedans (TL maybe?) b/c Acura had a placement deal for the film. The convertible Tony and Bruce drive off in together is also an Acura concept car.

And how much do I love that we're all sitting here geeking out about cars?

I LOVE THIS FANDOM.

And then I posted the question over on my Facebook so I've been geeking out about cars there, too. I always get the best ideas from conversations like this!

Those TLs are NICE CARS! I just want to pet it (http://www.freecarforum.com/wp-content/uploads/acura-tl.jpg). I still think there are very Hawkeye-specific modications under the hood. And because Coulson asked so nicely, he might have tinkered with his "standard issue" car, as well.

Because there is a picture in my mind of Clint with a smudge of oil on his cheek.

I wish I could participate, but I know nothing about cars. *weeps*

You don't have to know anything about cars to just appreciate how pretty they are! *grins* I'm right up there with the "It's blue" knowledge of most anything with an engine. But a well-built car is a thing of beauty!

What Lar said. For me, it's pretty much point and stare at the pretty ones. ;)
