IF YOU ARE A BATMAN FAN, YOU ARE ABOUT TO GET A ONCE IN A LIFETIME CHANCE TO BRING THE DARK KNIGHT’S ICONIC RIDE HOME… BUT YOU MAY NEED TO BORROW BRUCE WAYNE’S WALLET TO AFFORD IT..
“I GOTTA GET ME ONE OF THOSE..”
IF YOU’VE GOT 3-MILLION DOLLARS LYING AROUND AND A LOVE FOR THE ICONIC VIGILANTE, YOU’RE IN LUCK. WARNER BROTHERS HAS OFFICIALLY LICENSED ACTION VEHICLE ENGINEERING TO PRODUCE JUST TEN REPLICAS OF THE TUMBLER BATMOBILE, ORIGINALLY SEEN IN BATMAN BEGINS AND THE DARK KNIGHT, FOR THE STUDIO’S ‘WAYNE ENTERPRISES’ LUXURY RETAIL BRAND.
THE CAR IS FULLY FUNCTIONAL, WITH AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, STAINLESS STEEL HEADERS, AND A SOFTWARE SYSTEM DESIGNED TO MIMIC THE BATMOBILE’S FEATURES… EVEN SIMULATING ITS FAMOUS JET ENGINE… WITHOUT FLAMES, OF COURSE. BUT THERE’S ONE CATCH: IT’S NOT STREET LEGAL, SO IF YOU’RE BUYING IT, BE READY TO DISPLAY THE 5-THOUSAND POUND TANK IN A RATHER LARGE SHOWROOM OR LIVING ROOM.
ONLY TEN OF THESE COLLECTOR’S PIECES WILL BE AVAILABLE, BY INVITATION ONLY. AND IF YOU’RE ONE OF THE LUCKY FEW, EXPECT A 15-MONTH WAIT TIME AFTER PUTTING DOWN A DEPOSIT.
