Swede Create Batmobile Replica, Spends $1 Million In Doing So

A Swedish man wanted to be Batman so badly, he spent three-and-a-half years and $1 million turning a 1973 Lincoln Continental into a 700 HP fully-functional Tim Burton Batmobile. Why'd he start with a '73 Lincoln in Sweden?

Hmm. . . Or why not just buy a Koenigsegg and be COOLER than Batman.

I'm going to have to agree about the Koenigsegg. Probably easier to service too.

His passion I guess. Who really gets cars for chicks? And if you do I'm not knocking you but who really wants a chick that wants me because of my car.

And he probably did the lincoln chasis because of it's wheelbase.

Actually, research has definitely confirmed that men who drive "expensive" name brand marques like MB, BMW, Porsche, etc. attract better looking women than the same man who drives a beater Accord or Fiesta.

Is it really a shock that a large number of hot women are more interested in men for their money? These are the women that gather around men with Rolexes and a MB convertible - no news there. I guarantee that if you drive up to a nightclub in LA behind the wheel of a 911 convertible, you will end up with a hot girl regardless of your appearance. I see it all the time.

It's not so much going after men for their money but girls tend to like financial security in a guy.
