    wheres the news?, batmobiles have been out as kits for years, just because these have someones stamp of approval makes them worth $100,000 more? i grew up on batman, i had a batmobile hotwheel when the show was still new, but any time i see a batmobile now at a car show it is circled with people laughing at it...lol

    I thought Barris was confiscating any batmobiles that were to close to the original in some copyright infringement thingy law?

    I have a list of kit car sites saved on my favorite that I think I got here and there are 2 different companies listed there selling them in kit forms.

    I thought about buying 1 but painting it totally different but my funds have dried up since the big real estate crash.

    Bat-crap....if it ain't steel , it ain't real. If i had 150k i would'nt spend it on fiberglass. Get real

    If I won "mega-millions" and needed a Batmobile, I'd get Mr Barris to build me one.;)

    Yeah, If I had the bucks to blow on something like this I'd want steel and not with a crate 350 but I'd run the wheels off a Batmobile.

    Holy BATSHIT BATMAN there building batmobile clones?.

    I have a disasembled canted quad headlight, sectioned crewcab 42 chev p.u here stored in my back shed with super wild fins forming the bed, i built it in 02 well before the whole 50's car rear quarters forming the bedsides on trucks scene.

    Everyone who saw it "together" thought it belonged in the batcave.
