VIDEO: Batman Takes The Tumbler to Silverstone To Face Toyota F1 Car

Posted by Admin on July 8, 2008

When we first heard that The Dark Knight was taking on Toyota’s F1 car, it sounded like an argument that started on the playground. “What’s faster, Batman’s Tumbler, or an F1 car?”Well, it would have remained a purely theoretical question if it wasn’t for the bosses at Toyota and Batman – The Dark Knight movie crew. We suppose after the questions that have been posed and answered like “What’s faster, a Lamborghini or a fighter jet?”, Toyota decided to have a go at it and brought the Batmobile to Silverstone for some run-ups to this past weekend’s British Grand Prix.

We’ve got the video footage above and some high-resolution photos to below… Hit the jump for the photos.

Bruce Wayne’s Subtle Lamborghini – Batman Begins 2: The Dark Knight

Posted by Admin on May 9, 2008

As if Lamborghini wasn’t already tied together with Batman with their legendary Murcielago. (Murcielago means “Bat” in Italian, and the Murcielago Roadster was debuted on Batman Begins). Now the supercar brand is re-associating itself with Batman’s, or rather Bruce Wayne’s, Murcielago. But this time it’s as a nice and “subtle” daily driver. Well, maybe if you compare it to the Tumbler.This leads me to the question, Who would win in a race: Batman in his Murcielago, or Iron Man in his R8?
