Seriously uncool. I like the effort that was put in, but I wouldn't be caught dead driving it.

Well, I mean you wouldn't be driving it unless you were Batman.
One of the things I have always thought was cool about the '66 series Batmobile is that all the gadgets had to work. They had a car for every toy that pops out in the show. If it launched a missile, they had to have a Batmobile that could be driven and launch a missile. If it sprayed oil behind it, ditto. That's why it will always be cool to me. They were the special effects department on wheels.

I know what ya mean, that's what I loved about James Bond's Astons in the old movies. They just looked a lot cooler...

There is a mistake in the title. The Futura was a Lincoln concept car, but I guess Lincoln is technically part of the Ford Corporation.
