So accurate it requires almost a year to complete, this is the officially licensed, roadworthy replica of the Batmobile featured in the iconic 1960s TV show. Built on a custom Lincoln chassis, this crime-fighting cruiser comes standard with a 430-horsepower, 383 Blueprint Crate engine and a Monster TH350 automatic transmission.Boy, but that's tempting. Sure, for $200K you could get an exotic supercar or a fancy ubersedan, but neither would be as cool as the Batmobile. Sure, a Lamborghini will get you there faster, and a Maybach will be more comfortable, but the Batmobile is, well, the Batmobile.
I wonder if you have to pay extra for the Boy Wonder ejection seat?
That is all.
Thanks to Stretch for the link!

I saw one of these at a bike show in Rochester a couple of years ago. Apparently you can make the purchase price back in appearance fees in just a couple of years.
(Not really, but telling that to your better half after spending that kind of money on the car -might- keep you from getting burned at the stake.)
Having seen the real one, and knowing where #2 is sitting, no I wouldn't pay that much for it... :-)
