Batmobile On eBay
By nikkita | May 6, 2008
Congratulations, your childhood dream just came true. One of the 5 Batmobiles made for the original Tim Burton Batman film starring Michael Keaton and Jack Nicholson is now for sale on eBay. The starting bid starts at $500,000.00 and as of this moment, no bids have been made. If you are the winning bidder, expect to put down a 20% deposit within 48 hours of the end of sale. Also, because this was property of Warner Brothers, the buyer will have to sign a contract with them along with some other legal mumbo jumbo.
Now that we got all that out of the way, let’s focus on the fun stuff. The Batmobile with its custom built chassis measures in at 20 ft long and 8 ft wide. The motor is a Chevrolet 350. As you can see, there are no doors. You must enter the car through the canopy, just like in the movie. Like I said before, this is 1 of 5 (the 5th to be specific) Batmobiles that were built for the Batman film. Yes, Michael Keaton’s butt sat on those seats.
It’s legit. It’s really happening. A Batmobile can actually be yours. Head on over to eBay to place your bid or if you’re poor like the majority of us, there are more pictures so you can get up close and personal. And please, don’t call the poor guy if you’re not going to buy it. I’m sure geeks nationwide are ringing his phone off the hook.
