The Flatmobile: if not the world's flattest car, at least the world's flattest Batmobile

Only 19" tall, the Flatmobile proclaims itself to be the world's flattest car: a Batmobile pancaked by a steamroller.

The Flatmobile is powered by a jet engine (based on a gas turbine jet engine and a Holset 685 turbocharger from a Volvo FL10 truck) which, thanks to having its own custom afterburner, is capable of delivering 90lbs of thrust powering the Flatmobile to speeds in excess of 100mph.

If that Batmobile lost a wheel, I'm not sure the Joker would get away - the wheel would probably catch up with him and he'd still get clobbered. Seriously, with a turbine jet engine? *Shakes Head*
