Not sure what happened between yesterday and today but the auction for this 1 of 5 Batmobile made for Tim Burton’s Batman in 1989 has been pulled off of Ebay. I wouldn’t shed too many tears over missing out on the opportunity to own this kick ass movie prop unless of course you had a spare $500K to burn.
While it would be cool to own it looks like you would spend more time dusting the 20′ long by 8′ wide beast than you would driving it. Gizmodo U.K. reports that some kind of Warner Brothers contract has to be signed when you buy the car which may stipulate that you can’t drive it in public. I am guessing they are right because the 1989 model year Batmobile has only 54 miles on it.
Check out Complex for the rest of the Batmobile pictures.
