Mega-Bucks Batman Batmobile Sold for $4.6M

Mega-Bucks Batman! First Batmobile Sold for $4.6M

Caped Crusaders car from original TV series snapped up at auction.

Talk about an expensive ride!

The first Batmobile produced in the 1960s for the original "Batman" television series has been sold for oh, a mere $4.6 million, according to The Hollywood Reporter

who is the new Batman exactly?
Rick Champagne, a businessman and car collector from Phoenix, Ariz.
 
Persistence apparently pays off, since Champagne has reportedly been attending the Barrett-Jackson auctions for 15 years now.

The Batmobile tied the record with the Aston Martin DB5 Sean Connery drove in "Goldfinger" for the highest price paid for a movie car at an auction..
