Saw this in a Corvette Forum.
Going for the 1966 trim. I can see the Corvette victory flags on the wheels and nose turning into red Bats.
There’s a Black LeFerrari with Red pinstripes that looks like an updated Batmobile too.

Re: 2021 Corvette as ‘66 Batmobile
They're both dream cars. That Corvette may actually be more affordable than a Fiberglass Freaks Batmobile, but I'd still rather have a '66 Batmobile.
Re: 2021 Corvette as ‘66 Batmobile
Who wouldn't. While we're dreaming, I would take advantage of some LED up grades, especially the tail lights. Imagine the turn signals acting like batwings when you're turning. Or the horizontal strips on the rear sequentially lighting under braking or with the cherry top on. GPS screen system on one of the rolltop clusters.
lightweight aluminum body too.

I'm not really seeing it, Lou, but it's probably me. The only Corvette's I ever liked were the early Shelby models and Don Johnson's modified 80s version which was supposed to be a Ferrari. The Batmobile is classic, and I don't think you ever forget the first time you've seen it in person.

Andy, I think youre confusing Shelby's involvement with Cobras, not Corvettes.AndyFish wrote: ↑Tue Oct 26, 2021 11:22 am I'm not really seeing it, Lou, but it's probably me.

Andy,
I think the guy is going for paint scheme similar to the '66 model. Same with the LaFerrari - Black with red wide pin stripes.
Other than that, there's no resemblance.
My other comments on on LED, etc were for a 66 Futura based vehicle.
I saw on FB that someone took an early 60's Ford Falcon and added black paint/red striping, and wings, and called it a Batmobile. Then there's a Miata version, and on and on.
The 66 Batmobile still resides in the conscientiousness today - which is pretty cool!
