Amazing!
Too bad it's missing one of the best redesigns ever.

The ones I like best are

1966 - TV Series
1989 - Batman (movie)
1997 - Comic Books

Admittedly the '66 is way retro, but I still like the lines and look of that car.

Ya know, I don't actually like any of them that much. I guess I'm not much of a fan of the Batmobile.

You're also Canadian, so there's not much hope for you.

There were two "bat-cars" in the 1940s serials, but they were just a couple of sedans "borrowed" from Bruce Wayne.

The early 70's muscle cars are awesome! I also like the original too.

My fav. is the Tumbler though...I know people hate it, but I like cars with some muscle.

That's not muscle, that's steroid abuse!

My favorites are the one from the TV show and the one from 1958.

I wouldn't mind driving The Tumbler, though...

Don't think everyone hates it - I like the Tumbler too. I think my favourite though, is the one from Batman - the Animated Series.

No, it's the Batmobile on Venom!

the adam west is the most popular, my backside it is

Wow, I dislike most of these too! There are so many Batmobiles without wings. That seems wrong to me.
I'm going to say the '69 one (with wings!) is my favourite.
I also always thought the animated series did a good job with it. And from what I've seen the Brave and Bold one is neat, too.

PS: I assumed the Tumbler was ripped off of Frank Miller's. Is this true or false?

Aren't one of the 1988 cars and one the 1995 cars really just the 1958 car being reused?

Hrm....All I'm seeing is a pixelly blur?

I'm surprise that they didn't put the Bat-Train in there. Jean-Paul Valley used it when he took over as the Bat
