    Can't argue with that. I'll take the Mustang please.

      I don't even need context here. Seeing the Batmobile and Herbie "in the wild" never gets old!

      (Even if it's only in pictures these days.)

          What an interesting place to showcase...the positioning of that Batmobile raises my anxiety to dangerous levels

            The white and blue Mustang Cobra II was what Charlie's Angles drove.

              Yes I listed the CA Mustang. There is a blue car with a white roof between the Mystery Machine and the 1974 Dodge Monaco Bluesmobile from the Blues Brothers 1980 movie. It’s mostly hidden way at the top.

                Ah... Obviously I didn't read your post well... Darn I can only barely see that one. Not sure on that one.

                  Agreed I have no clue on that one. Might even be a random civilian car in the line up. Same as the potential KITT car. Not sure sure about it but the vague lines are there

                    Pretty sure that's KITT. Blew the image way up and the scanner notch and hood scoop(?) are visible.

                    That's got to be a custom Batmobile though! There's no way the company touring whatever represents the "official" Batmobile these days would expose it like that! Worked an appearance once (one of the stunt cars if I recall properly) and when moving it into position, those guys treated the car like a nitro and dynamite laden wagon going through a garden of speed bumps!

                      There is a company that makes licensed reproductions of the Barris Batmobile with a three to five year wait list and about 150k price tag.

                          Totally KITT for sure, just can't see enough of that white/blue sedan?? Found more copies of this picture on the Internet, but they aren't bigger and couldn't find out if there's more pictures taken at the same time.

                            Didn't stop my aunt though. Working for pre-breakup Ma Bell funded her acquisition of a Love Bug, which she then drove across the state to show me! Also, my car dealer neighbor often brought his KITT Trans Am by for me to admire. (No interior mods, sadly!)

                            Guess I was blessed to enjoy them vicariously. Cheaper that way!
