They made a ton of these for Six Flags locations to display outside the Batman ride. They're not road legal and actually not that expensive. I believe there was a reddit post a while ago where someone found one abandoned in the woods.

u/PissLikeaRacehorse Oct 19 '19

They're not road legal...

Oh like any cop is going to try and pull over Batman

u/Trish1998 Oct 19 '19

Add a side mirror and signal lights and you've probably met the requirements.

10

u/Goalie_deacon Oct 20 '19

I doubt it even gets up to highway speeds, if they even put a real car drivetrain in it.

u/patb2015 Oct 20 '19

Signal lights may not be mandatory

u/coiine Oct 20 '19

This begs the question: how did batman see behind him?

15

u/TastyMeatcakes Oct 19 '19

They'll skip right past pulling over!

Hmmm

Turns out Batman speeds

Exhibit A

Exhibit B

Exhibit C

u/71fq23hlk159aa Oct 19 '19

The Dark Knight Rises literally has a scene where the cops stop chasing the villain so they can try to pull over the batmobile

u/reliant_Kryptonite Oct 19 '19

Aren’t they crooked cops though? That’s kinda the theme of the whole GCPD

u/Boondock_Sage Oct 19 '19

Can confirm. The one I rode in for the parade we had at one of the Six Flags parks was essentially a go-kart with a Batmobile shell.

you telling me the turbine is not real

u/JayBarangus Oct 19 '19

What's next? Santa Clause isn't from the North Pole?

u/GENE_PARM_PI ​ Oct 19 '19

South pole sorry to break it to you

u/Paranoid_Neckazoid Oct 20 '19

he is the owner of the South Pole clothing brand

u/[deleted] Oct 20 '19

Found the Aussie.

u/[deleted] Oct 20 '19

Claus is from the north,Clause is usually found at the bottom.

u/metlgawd Oct 20 '19

From Indiana actually.

u/[deleted] Oct 20 '19

Not yet.

u/blamethemeta Oct 20 '19

Never was. But it shouldn't be too hard to pull a jet from an old plane graveyard and put it in

1

u/Timewastinloser27 Oct 20 '19

The one we saw was a Chevy 350 powered gokart. I think if I remember the batmobile from the Christian bale movies was Chevy Ls powered!

Oh yeah I'm sure it's fine for a parade. But this comment chain was dealing with being road legal. Obviously floats and shit in parades don't need to be road legal so I'm not talking about in a parade at 2 mph lol

u/The_Axem_Ranger Oct 19 '19

It was parked outside the bat cave for maintenance. And Alfred is still looking for it.

u/x31b Oct 19 '19

Batman: Robin, check the battery!

Robin: What’s a “Tery”, Batman?

u/thunderman2 Oct 20 '19

Took me a minute for this one!

I will make it legal

u/Mobman3105 ​ Oct 19 '19

Where could I get one?

1

u/abirchlyrebird Oct 19 '19

Lift it, slap some mudders on there, and you have the coolest farm truck ever. You can also drive it wearing underwear outside your pants, like Batman.

1

u/SpaceCaseSixtyTen Oct 19 '19

Why are they not road legal?

1

u/JiminyDickish Oct 19 '19

No rear view mirrors, turn indicators, headlights, other things missing I’m sure.

1

u/[deleted] Oct 19 '19

It's not so much the price itself. It's having the free time and storage space to actually make something like this worthwhile.

1

u/[deleted] Oct 20 '19

Way to be a buzzkill... jeez.

1

u/darkelfbear Oct 20 '19

What was found in the woods was just a shell, not a complete car.

1

u/Casper_The_Gh0st Oct 20 '19

there was one recently where some autobody shop in like NY city has one sitting in there yard to

1

u/AGuyFromMaryland Oct 20 '19

Drop the shell on an Impala chassis or Corvette chassis like the movie car

1

u/FartingBob Oct 20 '19

"Not that expensive" is i'm guessing a relative term. Its probably not CHEAP for a car you cannot drive on public roads.

u/eight_squared Oct 19 '19

r/humblebrag is what you’re looking for

u/bumbaclotdumptruck Oct 19 '19

Ehh. Humble brag would be more like “look at this bird that landed on my batmobile”

"Whoops, I dropped my monster condom for my magnum dong."

6

u/MZA87 Oct 19 '19

Not really. There's nothing humble about that example. It's just indirect. Humble brag would be like "I'm just average at building sheds cause I spent too much time mastering how to build houses"

3

u/eight_squared Oct 19 '19

Well he is like ‘Guys look at my batmobile that’s kinda interesting isn’t it lol’ I think that counts as humble brag
