Which would you rather own: The DeLorean from Back To The Future or The Batmobile (only caveat: you cannot use any of the tech, for looks only)

Neither. DeLoreans were terrible cars - that's why they aren't made anymore - so having one that can't time travel would be pointless. And driving the Batmobile around like a normal car would just be comically silly.
Parking the Batmobile sounds like hassle...
Nevermind.
I'm okay with this one. Can still park like a normal human being too.

Owning a Delorean is not some unachievable pie-in-the-sky impossibility. I could go buy a Delorean tomorrow.
I wouldn't, because the DMC Delorean is a famously terrible car.

It has a grapple hook for corners, what else do you want?
The DeLorean is just a really ugly car if you can't time travel. The Batmobile, any Batmobile, at least has style even at its most gaudy.

'66 Batmobile. Probably more reliable than a DeLorean too.
I had a die cast model of that car. I can't recall now whether it was by Dinky or Corgi. I do remember that it had a mechanism that sprung out a saw attachment from the nose, the rear exhaust pipe would appear to spurt "fire" (it was just brightly painted plastic), and the rear rocket launcher tubes worked. It also had models of Batman and Robin.
Burton or TAS Batmobile for sure. Delorean is a real car you could spruce up.
Not to mention it being one of the worst cars in existence. A friend in high school had one and thought he was going to die once when it stalled going up a steep hill and started rolling back down it.

Basically the whole of Back to the Future is a joke about how shit Deloreans were. Their speedos don't even go up to 88.
One of the Project Gotham games has an achievement for getting the Delorean up to 88, and it's only possible on one track with the longest straight in the game.
So the Batmobile, obviously.

You can't use time travel.
You had this gif in waiting didn't you
Chris Nolan's Batmobile. The Delorean looks ugly (it would look so much better in black). Easy answer!
Nolan Batmobile would be perfect. If I'm late, I can ignore traffic signals and start destroying walls without worrying what happens to my vehicle.
Batmobile.
DeLoreans drive like shit. They're bad cars. If it were not for BTTF no one would care about them at all.

DeLorean is just a standard shitty american car, why would i want one?
