Posted March 16, 2009 9:54 AM

From Autoblog:

It's no secret that Southern California is home to one of the best car cultures in the world. You can find a cruise or car show pretty much any day of the year, and it's always amazing to see the vehicles that show up.

In addition to the usual Ferraris, Lamborghinis and Porsches, you can sometimes catch some truly unique cars out in the wild.

Youngsters at work sometime ask me why I became an engineer.

Why? Batman, of course!

I watched the twice weekly show religiously, both during the original airing and in syndication. It, along with shows like The Green Hornet and Time Tunnel, started a fire in my soul that's yet to be put out.

Holy Scandalous Soapsuds! Batman would never allow ordinary citizens to wash the Batmobile!

Apparently Alfred and/or Robin are slacking off.

Hey Bhankiii...how's that Bat-Satellite-Criminal-Tracker-&-Tortillia-Maker coming along?

Haven't you heard. Alfred finally retired and is living in Bermuda with the Lovely Cat Woman. And when Robin got tired of being treated like a sidekick all the time he flew the coup.

Neat car. Wonder who owns all the other versions.
