Driving the new Audi A8 Spyder (convertible) with a V-10 engine may improve your sex life by the looks of this celebrity car video ... but if you can't afford to buy one or aren't really a Hollywood movie star, at least take your date to see the new Iron Man 2 action adventure movie coming out May 7.

AUDI R8 SPYDER IN IRON MAN 2

The following video shows Robert Downey, Jr playing Tony Stark -- a.k.a. Iron Man.

In the first film of the series, Stark had an outstanding car collection, including the Audi R8 coupe.

Top Gear stars like driving it; young people seem to love the look of it.

The hard top version of the sports car is actually considered an exotic car more than a luxury vehicle despite it's stylish appearance.

As a futuristic looking concept car, automobile enthusiasts seeing it previewed at car shows worldwide set out Audi fan cries of delight. However, it was actually seeing the car in motion in the Iron Man movie that got all the exotic car clubs attention.

Now, for Iron Man 2, the $156,000 Euro dollar Audi R8 Spyder is making it's debut -- and the celebrity car is lovely topless.

SPYDER V. SPIDER: EXOTIC CAR TRIVIA

The new top down version of the Audi R8 is aptly named the Spyder -- which usually indicates the exotic car is a convertible.

If you are a fan of Ferrari, then you already know that their convertible versions are called Spider -- with an "i".

Lamborghini fans also know that the convertible Lambo is a Spyder --spelled with a "y".

While the Ferrari exotics are curvaceous, the Lamborghinis are angular in design.

The Audi R8 (which some classify as a sports car, while others give it credit for being an exotic car, and a handful claim is a supercar) is somewhere in the middle -- incorporating the rounded fenders with angles intrinsically in the door line features.

Bottom line, the little speed machine provides its owners with a fast and furious ride.
