" equipped with a monstrous Boeing turboshaft 385 horse-power engine pulled out of a naval drone helicopter"
hows the gas mileage on said batmobile? I guess Bruce Wayne is worried about his carbon footprint

"Jet A, Kerosene, or Diesel fuel"

Diesel? Really???

 

[archange]

Umm, so, what's the mileage on this baby? xD

 

[SteelCity1981]

No Bullet Proof skin and rocket launchers like in the movie no sale.

If i was rich id buy it, i mean, how fun can it be to go to a party in the batmobile? .

 

[cognoscentiable]

I'd have no problem buying this if I had the cash... I'd have no problem driving around in it with matching batsuit either!

 

[JOSHSKORN]

TO THE BATMOBILE!

 

[officeguy]

I bet the heads will turn if I was driving this baby in my home town. Oh yeah, I will be wearing the Batman costume as well, lol.

 

[Archean]

Well at least it has much better name than the latest McLaren MP4-12C ............ although it will easily outperform the batmobile.

Jet engines will run on practically anything that burns.
Just like diesel engines...

And no, don't expect 30 mpg with this thing, think more like 2-5 mpg =O

But hey, if ur poppin 620k for this thing, fuel price is far far far far far far from ur mind.....

The problem is, you don't want to run out of gas while chasing bad guys, now do you?.

What's the point of the iPad? Does it run the avionics, or do they think it's "cool"?

Same point as any car having an LCD on the dash: entertainment and navigation. Plus, the article CLEARLY states it's used in conjunction with the bat tracers. Duh.
