BMW's Batmobile: Flickr photo of the day

Routinely fetching six figures, the BMW 3.0-liter CSL Batmobile is a true European treasure. The car often sports a Subaru WRX STI-style rear wing -- like in the above photo from Wessex Car Club -- only it originally arrived stored in the trunk for the boy racers of the time to affix.

1986 Indy 500 champion Bobby Rahal owns a beauty in silver, stored in his man cave outside of Chicago, along with a first generation Jaguar E-Type with the flat floor and a GT350 complete with Laguna Seca paddock passes in the glove compartment dated from 1969.

When visiting Rahal's place, he let me drive his $200,000 CSL Batmobile (just 20 feet out of the garage, but still). "I didn't want the big rear wing or any of that," Rahal told me. "It's beautiful enough as it is, and the engine is perhaps the greatest of its era."
