I've just spotted this Porsche 944 Batmobile on http://www.odditycentral.com/pics/1985-porsche-944-is-not-a-cool-batmobile.html and thought I'd share it with all of you. I love a lot of customised cars, but from the fake machine guns, to the huge bat wing and that fake jet engine this is just so, so, so wrong!!!! Check out the pic's and tell me what you think....

Script from oddity central's web page.... As Robin would say: “Jeepers Batman, look, a 1985 Porsche 944 Batmobile!”
I’ll be the first to admit Porsche makes some really good sport cars, although they aren’t the most affordable. But as cool as they are, Porsche roadsters will never be as awesome as any Batmobile, and this old Porsche 94s is a prime example.
In an attempt to copy the Batmobile from Tim Burton’s Batman, the owner of this 1985 Porsche 944 fitted it with two .223 machine-gun replicas that light up, for effect, some batwings for the rear wheels, pipes that come out of the car’s doors, as well as a big Batman logo on the hood, and some smaller ones on the rims.
On the inside, he opted for a yellow-black color theme, the Batman logo on the steering-wheel, and Batman rubber mats. Since he didn’t manage to change the original 2.5 liter engine of the Porsche, he added a NOS Sniper pack, to at least give you a chance at catching fleeing baddies.
It’s definitely not the most impressive Batmobile I’ve featured on Oddity Central, and that’s probably why he practically gave it away for only $6.500.
