Is that the Batmobile?
I am pulling up to the Wendy's drive through window and the guy behind the counter says "When I saw your car from a distance I asked myself "Is that the Batmobile"?
I replied sometimes I feel like it is. He said nice car as he was admiring the car with half of his body hanging out the window.
Before I get flamed, I know I commited a mortal sin driving my Vette through a fast food joint but my 4 year old angel
called me on way home from work asking for chicken nuggets. It's hard for me to say no to her.
It's funny no matter where you go, these cars turn heads.

Right after I got mine I took my good friend for a ride and after the initial "wow" factor wore off he said he felt like he was in the Batmobile.
