Very interesting and damn ugly. Someone obviously has way too much free time and money. Well, I guess the value of my Vettes just went up a few more pennies due to this Joker destroying yet another classic.

Reminds me of an Episode of Drew Carey where he won the Batmobile and someone stole it. When he called the police to report it stolen they thought it was a prank call and kept hanging up on him.

The Corvette enthusiast in me is quick to react saying "why would someone do that to a Corvette" but on the other hand, it's kind of cool in its own way. When I was a kid I wanted to be Batman and drive the Batmobile. Who wouldn't?

Although if it were me, I would have used a Manta Mirage, not a C3. It would have been a lot less work to make the Manta look like the Batmobile - this is how it looks stock for those who haven't seen one, it's a kit modeled after the old McLaren:




Sometimes you can find one on ebay for around $15k either on a fiero chasis or a custom tube frame.

HAHAHAHA oh my god!

I guess you would have to have a certain mindset to drive it with a straight face...... and some sort of forced induction to give it that necessary whistley whine behind the...... grill......

Well, you certainly couldn't say "But officer, it wasn't me, it was another Batmobile...."

If I were a cop and saw that go by, even at 100mph, I would just let it go on by. I wouldn't even want to know.....
