(BAM! SOLD! WOW!)... THE ORIGINAL BATMOBILE FROM THE TV SERIES SOLD FOR..... $4.2 MILLION!A man from Arizona with a love for Batman and Robin bought the original Batmobile from the television series for $4.2 million at an auction. Rick Champagne is a Phoenix-area logistics company owner.
He bought the black, futuristic two-seater that was featured in the "Batman" series from 1966 to 1968.
The man really liked Batman growing up and went to the auction with the intention of buying the car. He calls the purchase a "dream come true."
The Batmobile is based on a 1955 Lincoln Futura, a concept car built in Italy by the Ford Motor Company.
In 1965, the car was bought for $1 by customizer George Barris, who had just 15 days and $15,000 to transform the car for the TV show. He had owned it ever since.
The car has a V-8 engine and instruments in the steering wheel, plus innovative items like a push-button transmission.
