I heard that the '89 Batmobile is wider then the '92 version, in which parts of the car is the difference?
The rear fenders?....or?

There is a whole debate about this subject. The 89 is certainly a 'wide bodied car' and it has been said that the 92 returns was made narrower. The 92 also had the windsheild wipers added (not functional) and the clown trippers, bat disc's launcher.

According to Andy Smith (one of the original build team for the 89), he prepped the #1 car for use in the 'Returns' movie.

Quoted from Andy: "John
I have no idea what the 92 car was. I know we sent a spare set of bodywork to the States and a car was built there. It turned up when we were working on the other cars, it was gloss black and had been narrowed to fit in a trailer, fitted with hydraulic front suspension and no interior to speak of. The Warners Execs took one look and it went back in the trailer and we never saw it again.
All the moulds went to the States so who knows what was made.
I took the two cars over there for the second film, went through them mechanically, showed the FX guys how all the stuff worked and then left them to it."

89 v's 92? I would love to know the definitive answer to this question too.
