Audi R8 Spyder again in Iron Man 2?

The Audi R8 Spyder appears at 2:10 of the new Iron Man 2 trailer below:

Tony Stark has absolutely no shortage of exotic vehicular toys at his disposal. And we’re not even counting that whole Iron Man robotic suit – he now has four! - he keeps with him all the time. There’s a scene at the Circuit de Monaco, a slightly different Formula-something race with Tony Stark behind the wheel of one of the race cars, and a clear-as-day shot of the new Audi R8 Spyder. Also, there’s lots and lots of Scarlett Johansson, too.

It seems that Audi again appeared again on this new movie Iron Man 2. I hope it will be good or better than the first.

There was some snow lying on the surrounding areas, [but] the road conditions were clear and dry, so, they would not have been a contributing factor either."

The said actor was born in Texas and attended high school in Waukegan, Ill. He graduated from Northern Illinois University with a B.F.A in Acting in May of 2005.
