Re: KITT'S NEW FEATURES

the Original looks better and is more aerodynamic, where as the KITT-Stang handles like a brick on corners, so I have read. While I agree with you on the looks, that is an opinion and there is sure to be disagreement. I definitely argree with the aerodynamics! That's one of my complaints against th...

Re: KITT AS A MUSTANG - ACCEPT IT OR HATE IT POLL

When I said '60s style, I was referring to the back end of the car that you see in the teaser. However, like you guys are talking about, the analog gauges are also the '60s style. Like Victor said in another post, I would speculate that they will be the analog gauges when it is in normal mode and th...

Re: movie or new TV series,which would you want to see

This is a really tough call. If the Glen Larson movie was a continuation (like the TV series), I would definitely lean towards Larson's movie. A reboot just doesn't seem as exciting when you already know the plot. The benefits of Larson's movie though is the big budget - you can get top notch acting...

Speaking for myself, I apologize to Solid Snake for feeling insulted (or hated) by my reaction to this statement: I just think the new KITT looks kick ass in the teaser! Loving it even more! The reason I reacted the way I did is because this statement seems way over-the-top to me when you don't real...

Re: KR uk says cease and desist lawsuit?

Yeah, I think NBC is pretty confident that the backdoor pilot will air in February as planned. I'm sure they are aware of the lawsuit against them, yet they still showed that 15 sec. teaser. I will be pretty shocked if they aren't allowed to proceed with the TV movie.

I still say a Mustang GT would have been much better than the Shelby Mustang in terms of styling/look. :-) Also a Saleen Mustang looks much cooler too. :) But, what I want to see is a KITT-like car that is Made in USA (not just American company, but made on US soil). Any suggestions on that? --Bria...

Re: Plot Hole: M. Long's T/A vs. KARR

Well for me personally, I always thought that it was a different Trans Am. I was 12 when the pilot aired in 1982 and I just thought it was a coincidence that Knight Industries used the same model car that Michael Long had. My reasoning was that the TA had great aerodynamics from the foundation's sta...

Re: Subura beats Shelby Mustang in

A better example is of a 400HP Corvette outperforming the 500HP Shelby GT500, as shown in a Car and Driver article: http://www.caranddriver.com/comparisons/11150/heavy-pedal.html This article shows that the Corvette is clearly superior to the GT500 and can be had for only about $4,000 more.

This just got me thinking: Has there ever been a TV series that has returned to TV years later and still had the same exact title???

The Knight 3000 has to have the Molecular Bonded Shell. That's the biggest and most important feature! If it don't have the MBS, I'm not watching.

That Camero is definitely not as a boxy as a Shelby Mustang. However, it is still trying to be more "retro" and more "boxy", not as futuristic looking as the original KITT. Plus the Camero is Made in Canada. I have no problem with Canada or the Canadians, but in my mind, Knight ...

Thank you, Matt, for more side-by-side pictures of the Mustang and concept Camaro. If the Camaro was as boxy and retro-looking as the Mustang, then I would agree that there is some major hypocrisy going on here.

None. Those are all poor chaoices. And too flashy. K.I.T.T. should blend in with regular traffic and not be so easy to spot, while at the same time not being a 1992 Honda Accord. The '82 Trans Am was too flashy then. The '82 T/A was a new design. In fact, in 1982 the new Trans Ams were really flash...
