I saw a couple of them at San Diego Comic-Con this past July and the one that blew me away the most was the '60s version. It just looked SO amazing.

Sign my shit up, are there tour dates or what? I've seen the Adam west-mobile once before, but I didnt have a camera. In '05 I saw the tumbler at universal city walk but the pictures were over exposed, so thwarted again...

The Batmobile from Batman & Batman Returns was my favorite. It was the first Batmobile I saw when I was a kid.

I'm always going to have a soft spot for the 1966 version.
Everything about it just makes me smile.

Burton's Batmobile was driven by the Dark Knight! Not eyebrow on the mask batman, neon batman or the military, raspy voiced, non-confident, gets his ass handed to him batman. Still the best Batman, close to the comics and the core of the characters.
