File this under awesome. A man, surnamed Li, from Huacao Village in Shanghai's Minhang District has built a full-size replica of the Batmobile. 

Li's creation shot to viral fame after a patrolling cop spotted it and uploaded photos to social media. "It's a shame the car is only a model and doesn't run," Li said, though the doors do open and people can sit inside (and pretend to be Batman).
