Batmobile in Dubai
A Corvette V8 5.7 engine powers it with more than 500 horsepower, according to Arabian Business, and it's estimated it can reach 250 km/hr. It can also be registered to legally drive on the UAE roads — now that's an Uber I'd like to cruise in.

1956 Oldsmobile 88 - THE FIRST BATMOBILE
I know I've blogged about this car before. But now here's a more in depth look at it with some history behind it and some great video, too.
Sid and Alicia Belzberg can now be considered amongst some of the most

known to be the first Batmobile ever made.
