A model of the Batmobile featured in the 1989 classic, Batman, sold at auction for $12,000 on January 22nd, 2011. The Batmobile was built on a 1985 Corvette chassis with a Corvette engine and was used in the Tim Burton movie. It was expected to fetch between $5000 and $10,000.
The Batmobile was the big draw of the hundreds of lots offered as part of the American Superhero Museum sale. Sadly, the American Superhero Museum closed its doors, and sold-off its inventory. It was open less than five years.
