As for the "hero car" in Ironman, I don't think the consolidated marketing budgets of FFR, BDR, KMP, CSX, SPF and ERA is even a fraction of the marketing budget of VW/Audi/Porsche. That's why the Audi is the "hero car" in alot of today's movies.

And one more movie, "Fast 5," used both a Mongoose '63 Grand Sport replica and a RCR GT40 replica, both considered "hobby cars."

1966 Ford GT40 Fast & Furious 5

Audi is a real production car and company. These Cobras are fakes and recreated all over the world.

In Fast 5, the cars were supposed to represent the real cars. That's why they were stealing them. I missed the scene where Dom tell Brian, "Hey, those are kit cars. Be careful."
