Post by: Monster Dave on July 15, 2010, 12:52:17 PM
Ok, so there's a guy on Ebay selling a street legal replica of the Keaton Batmobile - anyone have $165,000 just laying around? Group buy?? LOL!! Purely awesome.

Can you say "I'm Batman"?

If I were rich, I'd buy this in a heart beat! The guns even fire (blanks)

Looks cool.

Doubt it is much fun to drive.

For that kinda whip, I'd rather get something else.

This car would be awesome for those moments where you just have to say "hey, that's Keatons' Batmobile"

I'd love to drive down the street firing blanks from the Batmobile!!! Suddenly highway driving would be a heck of a lot more fun!!!!  [evil]

because he can't fit in his Catwoman costume anymore so he'd feel weird riding it wearing anything less

sure or whatever the official name was for the "regular" family car.

If someone buys me the Dragula I hereby promise to commute daily in it at least until I get run over in it and perish.

You're thinking of the Munster Koach.

The Dragula was Grandpa's dragstrip car, a coffin with a bubble roof.  [thumbsup]  [thumbsup]
