Definitely agree there! The 2005 "Tumbler" seemed a little over the top..

I liked the idea of driving laying down face forward, and the ejection motorcycle was sick.

I have to agree. The car, at it's time, just seem so futuristic with it's atomic turbine engine and other gadgets. The parashoot turns were awesome.

2008. Base car: Lamborghini Reventon.....

Um, I'm pretty sure that with only 20 produced, that would make it entirely too easy for the supervillains to figure out who Batman is haha.

the guy playing Kato in The Green Hornet, Jay Chou, had a Tim Burton Batmobile made for him by the same guy who made the one for the movie.
