In second place we have the Batmobile, which a whopping 27.89% of the people we polled thought was the most iconic movie car of all time. The trouble is, there are multiple Batmobiles, roughly the same number as there are actors that have played Batman. The bored villain-baiting billionaire has attached numerous crime-fighting gadgets to his ride throughout his various incarnations, but that’s probably not what the cars should be judged on. Instead, we’re just going to look at what are probably the two most iconic Batmobiles the caped crusader has ever driven.
Obviously, the original Batmobile makes the list. The first one driven by Adam West in the iconic 1960s series was based on an Oldsmobile 88, though a version that was based on the Lincoln Futura also appeared in later years. Despite its prestige, the original Batmobile was left abandoned and rusting in a field for decades before it was rescued, auctioned, and eventually sold to someone with the skill and means to lovingly restore it.
Then we have what is arguably the most unique version of a very unique vehicle, the Batmobile that cropped up in the late ’80s during Michael Keaton’s time as the comic book hero. Between the fins and the mile-long hood, this car perfectly reflects the version of Gotham we saw in the “Batman” movies of that time — a strange mixture of modernity, the 1920s, and the future with a very dark overlay. And like the original, you could actually own this vehicle, or at least an incredibly detailed replica of it. The replica, which includes the famous flamethrower afterburner, was up for auction in 2013.
