Re: New KITT

I think they've already made it very clear that this car will not be capable of jumping, and therefore, you are absolutely right, it will be about a car moving extremely fast, and that's it :shock: . Oh, yeah, and changing shapes, like Terminator 2 :? . Well truth be told that there isn't a car ali...

Re: New KITT

Well the new car has to perform some serious stunts like jumps and stuff. Without that, its just a show about a car moving around really fast. They chose the mustang and its would appear that the show does not have heavy graphics involved, so I guess the availability of cars off the production line ...

I apologise if anyone here finds this thread offensive, but there actually never was supposed to be a discussion.. Just a simple poll.

Re: New KITT

How are people who live outside the US gonna be able to watch the movie??? I still maintain the car would have been better as the camaro, but I still love the new car's look. Whoever thought of those dual scanners is brilliant. Except that moma steering wheel.... I prefer a proper Knight Industries ...

Re: New KITT

There's never been a great TV series made that disregarded cost. They've all had budgets and while some may go a little over in say the pilot then that money has to come from somewhere. What usually happens is they reduce the budget on other episodes to make up for it. It's not like the original sh...

Re: New KITT

2009 Chevrolet Camaro: This is still a concept car and not set to go into production for a year. Filming requires a production vehicle that can be replaced at (relatively) reasonable cost, and this won't fit the bill. Its beauty shots in "Transformers" are nothing compared to the damage i...

Re: New KITT

with the given options (and we all know because of transformers the camaro is no real option) i have to go with the Shelby GT500KR. it's the only car that fulfills every requirement and is also available. I really fail to see why the Camaro isn't a viable option for KITT. Don't get me wrong... I re...

Re: KITT's Engine

Well I thought as much...
What kind of engine is it?? Normal Piston, or Fuel Cell??? I recall references made to Turbines from the episode where they have a collision with Goliath.

New KITT

OK... with all the topics raising up about which car they should've used for the K3000 and stuff... I've decided to do something about it... Lets settle the argument once and for all... We'll have a friendly vote.

KITT's Engine

I remember watching an episode of the original series with KITT and Michael enter a race for cars with alternative fuels. I do know that according to the story that KITT was not running on a conventional petrol engine... Any ideas as to what kind of engine did he have???

Re: OFFICIAL EXTERIOR KITT PHOTOS!

The Shelby is no different to me. It is a model of car that has been around for some time, that's not incredibly rare, but not so common that the car would become an eyesore, and has been used for other movies and television shows. I honestly don't mind them using it... it's a nice car, and a lot o...

Re: Kitt should be the new Chevy Camaro

:kitt2: To create a new show is not a bad Idea, but the choice of the car will deffently lose Knight riders rep. I have nothing againest Mustangs, but this car has nothing futuristic about it. Now the Chevy Camaro, is something new; so what! if it was in Transformers. Putting this car on Night Ride...

I love the look of the new car... Love the dual scanner theme.... but that steering wheel.... :cry: Why is there a "MOMA" logo on it. Shouldn't there be a Knight Industies Logo on it??? That makes it look like an ad campaign.... I would have loved to see KITT appear as the 2009 Camaro. Dam...

Re: The many vehicles of Knight Rider

Any ideas of what the car used in Custom Made Killer was???

That happens to be one of my fav episodes back in the day. I remember watching it as a kid and then recently they started showing the original Knight Rider series again... and they showed that one.
Boy did it bring back memories...

Re: Kitt should be the new Chevy Camaro

Camaros may be made in Canada, but no doubt the brains behind the camaro was entirely American. Fords are made all over the world basically, even in 3rd world countries with cheap labor and even cheaper build quality. To my knowledge, and wikipedia is the only source I have seen that shows where th...

Re: Kitt should be the new Chevy Camaro

I can't believe some of the complaints I'm reading here. Are you guys for real? No, Knight Rider should not be the Chevy Camaro. First, KITT was a Trans Am, not a Camaro. But they stopped referring to it as a Trans Am in like season 2. It wasn't a Camaro, so I don't see why just because they are bo...

Re: Kitt should be the new Chevy Camaro

Sometime ago, a pic was posted on the internet of how KITT would look like. Basically they used some European supercar... But it never had the punch. Take a look.
I figure the new KITT looks alot better than the one in the pic.
