[quote]Seems just about anyone can drive like Batman these days, if they have $1 million and 20,000 man-hours to spare. No doubt this Swedish man felt just like Bruce Wayne during those long three and a half years, except without the financial muscle of Wayne Enterprises or a wise-cracking Alfred to bring him tea during breaks.
The tinkerer stuffed a 1973 Lincoln Continental chassis with gadgets such as voice recognition tech, rear-view cameras, satellite navigation, and of course machine guns. A DVD player and a plasma TV are also crammed somewhere in there, for those times when driving a Batmobile gets tedious. After all, that Stockholm traffic gridlock can become deadly dull even in a car with 700 horsepower.
This version of the Batmobile doesn't quite make it to the military-grade Tumbler featured in Christopher Nolan's Batman films, but should still manage to turn plenty of heads. Here's an idea for the driver -- watch The Dark Knight while cruising the streets at night. Now that's meta.[/quote]
Holy Shit, If only I had a million dollars :frown:
Fuck yeah!
That thing looks like pure sex.
I always loved that batmobile.
I hate the ones with huge and uncalled for fins that are rickety and shit.

The tumbler would be better, but it's still fucking awesome!
The tumbler looks like a tank, this looks like a batmobile.

Yes it could, like making it metal shine, not plastic.

looks better in matte imo.
Sweeeeet.
It's always the swedes.
Does the turbine power up? That would be fucking incredible if it does.
It looks pretty good too. There's nothing more rewarding than finishing a project like that.
If you bought this you'd never be done with cops stopping you.
Can't wait to crash it and then shoot out of it on a motorcycle.
Looks like it would get a fuel economy of around one foot per gallon

I guess you won't post anymore, since you would be dead.

I'll find a way :frogc00l:
There used to be a old school batmobile in my neighborhood. I saw it once or twice at Price Chopper

Are you trying to be funny/cool? If yes, you're failing. If no, then stop.

That's the best Batmobile, too.
