Re: The actual trans ams used for filming knight rider TOS

I thought it was common knowledge that 5 original KITTs survived. The hero car for season 1/2, the hero car for season 3/4, the convertible, and a couple of stunt cars. There was a get together a few months ago that brought 3 of the cars together. I think the convertible is in a Florida museum. I h...

Re: Another glimpse into the reality side of AI and machines.

Thinking about AI in theory brings good things like KITT in mind but when it's becoming more real, it's KARR that begins to fill the mind. This human looking robot says she want's to destroy humans. Not sure if "she" has been programmed to say that or was it the AI itself that created that...

Re: Another glimpse into the reality side of AI and machines.

Re: harness suggestions...

It's very good idea keeping dog or any other pet connected in any kind of harness in the car. There's been accidents when dog has been free in the car and have come to disturb the driver and car has gone out of control causing an accident. When my parents had a dog, they had a station wagon and dog'...

Re: K.I.T.T. starring in Music Video

Very nice music and video, definetely has that 80's synthpop feeling and KITT makes cool video any time :good: Love listening this type of music, New Retro Wave, for example David Hasselhoff - True Survivor: ZTidn2dBYbY Another favourite is Mitch Murder, for example Frantic Aerobic :) X8hiZvxLRHY

Re: 2017 camaro ss as kitt in the Knight rider remake

How about sticking the scanner between the headlights and perhaps small centercaps on the wheels to make them a bit smoother / aerodynamic, mimicking KITT's original rims?

Re: Knight Rider like vehicle seen crusing around

Driving games like Gran Turismo are my thing, why they can't add KITT in that game :P Because that would be rather unfair to all the other GT cars, I'm guessing? After all...Extreme handling. Extreme speeds. Jumping over everything. Heh...oil slicks and smoke clouds. It just wouldn't be...sporting....

Re: What if.. KITT was another car?

How about Opel Calibra as KIFT or even as KITT 2.0 if Knight Rider lasted to the 1990's?

At least Calibra is a GM product like the Trans-Am :)

Maybe the Youtube ad boycott is over then :)

Sort of interesting game because they use those 80's tv-series theme music even it may not be actually the genre I usually play. Driving games like Gran Turismo are my thing, why they can't add KITT in that game :P
