NASCAR's Joey Logano ditches his racecar for Michael Keaton's Batmobile (photos)

NASCAR's Joey Logano is no stranger to fast cars. But he took a ride in the coolest car on the planet last night -- Michael Keaton's Batmobile.

The Batmobile is owned by ventriloquist/comedian Jeff Dunham, and the dynamic duo were spotted cruisin' around the streets of Los Angeles. They even stopped at gas station to fill up!

Michael Keaton's Batmobile is my favorite, and it also happens to be my dream car. I hope I'm as lucky as Dunham one day and can afford one myself.

If you could only have one, which Batmobile would you want to drive around town in? Let me know in the comments below!

As cool as that Keatons batmobile is, it's starting to get vary dated.
If I only had one to choose, I would choose Batman V Superman's.

The car is 25+ years old, of course it's dated, but it still looks good.

Not a chance! The car is timeless. If anything, it might be very impractical for Batman in this era, other than that it is the favorite one right next to BTAS Batmobile.

The new Batmobile from Batman V Superman is looking pretty damn good and would probably be the one I'd like to own someday

Not a racing/NASCAR fan at all but man he must have had some fun! I would love to take a ride in all of the Batmobile's. My favourite at the moment is the Tumbler.
I have a feeling Batflecks Batmobile is going to take over as my favourite though it looks awesome in the pictures.

It does look cool it's just I wish they went less tank like and more like the comics

Less tank like and comics like I agree

March 18, 2015

They need to stop making Tankmoblies and actually take from the comics (yes I know that in TDKR he has a tank but that was 1 time and it's not even canon plus he designed it to takeout Sups so its prob not even his normal Batmobile!!) (which we never see)
http://www.refinedguy.com/w...

Harvey Bullock
March 18, 2015
Exactly. He's supposed to have a Batmobile not a Tankmobile.
1. Clown Two-Face
  March 18, 2015
  I understand why Nolan did a tank and I respect the Tumbler for what it is! I just don't think they need to do another tank!! (Correct meif I am wrong but I don't even think it was ever called the Batmoblie in the Nolan movies just the Tumber)
  1. Harvey Bullock
    March 18, 2015
    No he never called it a Batmobile even once. Nolan wanted to overground Batman in such realism that his movies never worked for me. I'm not a Nolan fan to be totally honest. The only Batman film of his that I liked at all was Begins. I'm not too thrilled from what I've seen of Snyder's Batmobile either. It seems that they are going with another overlygrounded approach. I will reserve final judgement until I see the movie, but I'm just basing my current opinion of the few pics I've seen so far.
    1. Emperor Penguin
      March 19, 2015
      I don't think Snyder is trying to ground it in realism, I think he is going for a mix between the dark knight returns batmobile that was a literal tank and a more car like practical batmobile. But I also would like to see a more true to the modern comics batmobile. As much as I love Frank Miller's with with batman I'm getting kind of tired of the movies being based off him

    I feel like Alfred called it that at one point but I can't recall...

  These are comic movies plus as someone who does theater there's a thing called suspension of disbelief:
  The phrase "suspension of disbelief" came to be used more loosely in the later 20th century, often used to imply that the burden was on the reader, rather than the writer, to achieve it. This might be used to refer to the willingness of the audience to overlook the limitations of a medium, so that these do not interfere with the acceptance of those premises. These fictional premises may also lend to the engagement of the mind and perhaps proposition of thoughts, ideas, art and theories.
  Basically to overlook the fact that dragons are not real believe there's one on stage or in this case a non tank like Batmobile is viable for Batman
  1. Justin J
    March 19, 2015
    Dude chill, I know what the suspension of disbelief is.. sometimes less is more.
    Now, we're all using that to even to watch a movie (or consume other media) about a guy who dresses as a bat. But, it's 2015 and people aren't stupid (no offense) like in 1989 and want something more believable if possible. I've already stated that I love Burtnon's car, what I'm saying is, today no one would believe that a car, which obviously is not able to run over a curb, could chase criminals or evade the police.

Keaton's Batmobile- one of the reasons I did not like it because it had horrible dynamics, needed a grapple hook to make sharp turns.
