Actually I think the original Batmobile (George Barris' Ford Futura creation from the 60's TV show) had black seats with red piping. I watched it as a kid almost everyday! lol Some recreations had a red interior though.

I think my mother said my first word was "Batman" not mommy or daddy lol. It sold at a Barrett Jackson auction for crazy money. $4+ million

I did not pff mine, I don't like such films except when I go to the track. I also did not use a professional service for the ceramic coating and did it myself, which is to say it is not as good as the professionals' work. I try to wash it regularly, once a month or so, during the summer months. During winter months, I try to get by without washing. The car is filthy right now, but I am not washing at 30-40 deg weather.

So, far I have 3K miles on the car, it is doing very well. I think part of the secret sauce is not to care too much about cleanliness, and not be obsessed with perfection. Getting it shiny is the easy part
