Perhaps the most celebrated Batmobile after the 1966 model from Adam West’s Batman TV Show is the Anton Furst designed version from the 1989 and 1991 Tim Burton films.

And while collectors may seek the original Batmobiles featured in the movies, we’re pretty sure that fans will take a special liking to this replica, which is up for grabs on eBay.

What separates this replica of the 1989 Batmobile, not only from the other clones on the market but the original as well, is that, according to the seller, it is the only turbine-powered car of its kind in the world.

Built and designed by Casey Putsch of Putsch Racing in 2011, the car was completed in 2011. Under the massive hood you’ll find a Boeing turboshaft jet engine borrowed from military drone helicopter.

Putsch Racing says the engine, which can run on Jet A, kerosene, or diesel fuel, pushes out 365-horsepower (the seller doesn’t say with which type of fuel), though we’ll assume that most people will be more interested in the sound it makes and which you can check out in the videos below.

The replica tips the scales at approximately 2,800 pounds or just 1,270 kilos, and comes equipped with height-adjustable suspension. according to the seller, its street legal in the U.S.

Now for the bad news; even though the seller has dropped the price tag from the last eBay auction ($620,000), the car is still listed at a ridonkulous $520,000.
