Warner Bros. has announced that the “Powerful” Mach 5 will be on display for all to see at the Detroit Auto Show  in preparation for the movies debut this coming May. The car will be introduced during media week January 13-17th and then during the public showing January 19-21st. So if you hope to get a glimpse of the movie car and you are not in the media be sure to get there that first weekend of the public showing.

The movie Speed Racer, filmed by the creators of the Matrix Trilogy Larry and Andy Wachowski, will reach theatres nationwide on May 9th of this year. Which ofcourse for fans of the Speed Racer series and fans of the Wachowski brothers that might just seem like too long to wait. 
Speaking as a fan I know that I cannot wait to see both the movie in May and the Mach 5 in Detroit.

Thanks for the tip, Ben.
