Research, yeah that's it!
I sometimes amuse myself when it comes to putting details in my story. When I first started writing "Downtime", I decided Fury needed a car when he visits Tony Stark.
But since, in my ficverse, the original version of SHIELD is answerable to the American government I decided I needed a car other than the modified Ferrari 330/P4 Berlinetta from the first Nick Fury: Agent of SHIELD series. I wanted a 60's American sports car that would be a good replacement for the Ferrari (expensive but cool)-
I ended up giving Fury a red 427 Shelby Cobra. (Mostly because the most expensive American sportscar ever sold at auction was a Cobra for $5.5 million dollars last year.)
Well, after seeing Iron Man again today, I realized Tony Stark has a Shelby Cobra (this one to be exact) in his collection. The blue one on the left.

It's the one he trashes when he miscalculates his landing and goes through all the floors.

I like when my research actually fits into cannon. lol.
