The 'marmite' nature of the car may have contributed to this underwhelming result, but others have speculated the terms and conditions attached to the vehicle have been decisive. The controversial Batmobile fell short, realising only $165,000. The car was offered by Auctions America on March 5 with an estimate of $200,000-275,000. Originally purchased by Al Wiseman in 2007 for $297,000, the car - which has a Chevrolet V8 engine - allegedly cost $2.5m to build. With its large 'fin' at the rear and unusual chassis, the Batman Forever Batmobile is very recognisable, but has split Batfans down the middle ever since the film's release - some love it, some hate it. The vehicle in question was used in the 1995 film 'Batman Forever', starring Val Kilmer, and is considered one of the most distinct, if divisive, Batmobiles ever conceived. As we reported last week, a unique model of Batman's famous car - the Batmobile - was due to be auctioned this week in Fort Lauderdale, USA.
