In a marketing move that gives an atomic wedgie to those other lame car advertising campaigns, Acura has become the official vehicle of S.H.I.E.L.D. For those of you not well versed in comic book lore (we won't hold it against you), S.H.I.E.L.D. is the elite secret government crime fighting worldwide peacekeeping agency featured in the upcoming Marvel Studios movie "Thor," in theaters May 6th.
Although some of the details are "classified," you can gain minimal security clearance by becoming an agent through joinSHIELD.com. Start by holding down your "s" key to scan your fingerprint, and begin your climb through the ranks of the agency. With each mission, various Acura models will become your vehicle of choice (just like the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents in the movie!), as you vie for a chance to win prizes. Four agents winners will be randomly chosen to win the grand prize: an invitation to Acura's S.H.I.E.L.D. Evasive Driving Center where they'll be trained in the art of evasive and stunt driving maneuvers.
