The Most Correct Batmobile?
I have several Batmobiles in my collection and have seen MANY more on the web, but they all seem to be lacking in one area or another. For example, the Funko 3.75 is pretty dang good, but lacks the hood mounted Bat Radar, has no trunk mounted antenna and the dash is without any detail. Not to mention (so WHY then am I mentioning it?) NO DANG LICENSE PLATE!!!! Polar Lights Snap Together has all of the above mentioned detail, but the figures are NOT '66 TV show versions of the Dynamic Duo. My best guess is they are the Super Friends version or perhaps Silver Age Comic. The NJ Croce 10" Batmobile has the details down pretty dang well - BUT THE WHEELS DON'T ROLL!!!!
Ok. Rant over. My question is which version of THE Batmobile (I refuse to recognize any other) is closest to perfection?

Re: The Most Correct Batmobile?
The only 1966 Batmobile out of the box that is relatively accurate is the deluxe Polar Lights 1:25 model kit. All other versions are based on the car as it was at the time of the 3D scan, sometime in 2005-2006. If you are familiar with the original car at all, you know that it had all kinds of, ahem, 'accessories' added.
Re: The Most Correct Batmobile?
I agree with Mark here. The Polar Lights 1:25 deluxe is the nicest I have personally come across myself.
Re: The Most Correct Batmobile?
The Polar Lights is by far the most accurate Batmobile because it can be modified and has resin Adam West figures. This has a metal beacon and suspension was lowered. Built for me by The Third Models.
