Well...I figured since KITT had already gone to the trouble of backing up a few feet for an interview, that well, I'm sure he wouldn't mind taking us all for a spin around the parking lot.
And if you're wondering why I'm not screaming my head off in the video it's more of a stunned silence. Though I bet if we had room for that turbo boost you'd be hearing one.
Hello, I am Sue’s Hybrid Automated Droid One-thousand. But you may call me SHADO.
That's awesome. The car is sooo great. (but would look so much better in my garage instead of that parking lot)
Lucky you, and thanks for sharing this video. I'm gonna watch it again now...
OMG, i would so kill to ride in that car...i dont care if the damned thing talked to me or not, just the scanner, neons and globe make it KI3T...its just awesome/

That was awesome Sue...I bet some days you wish you could turn off the wind...or kick aside a speed bump. I loved the inside view and the purr of KITT's engine....Oh Yeah!!!! So Cool!
That is a computer not a sofa.......Knight of the Drones
A firsthand viewer of Knight Rider '08!
And I LOVED it!
Oh yeah, the wind was a pain. I do wish I could turn it off.
Somehow though I managed not to notice KITT politely reminding me to activate the laser restraints.

I tell ya, if it was me asking for a drive I would have gotten a firm no! Sue so charmed that driver that he had to oblige! Haha, thanks again Sue. Great stuff.
I was wondering though, what is the "story point" he is talking about because of the tinted windows, maybe a certain character may come up in this car?
Most likely the car drives on its own and as they are not using the remote control car anymore they use a simple way of getting the no driver illusion... black windows. However, one can always hope .
I saw a version of Kitt in person, just the promo kitt, I did the driving experience(i test drove an Edge) was offering, I was begging for the keys

they are just custom Mustang GT, hence the Automatic in the car.
real KR would be too expensive because say u damaged the hood, u have to send the damaged Hood to Shelby to get a new one. There is only 1000-1500 of these cars made, and i think like 200-300 available in the black. And the rest are in Silver, Red or Blue

Wow Sue thats great! You always get allowed onto set. Wish I could've gotten an ride on Kitt.
Btw, the not so friendly site "Jalopnik" has this story on their site. Still boggles me why they never used my Attack Kitt pictures, or why they blocked my account but, Oh Well!

maybe its for KARR? he has no driver,so he need that

Regular Ki3T needs no driver as well.
They tint the windows so that the stunt drivers wont be seen.
Neil - I finally got to see it. I guess it was a momentary glitch that hit just when I was about to view it. It's working now.
WOW, Sue you are so lucky! I loved the sound of that engine too. Reminds me vaguely of my Taurus' Duratec (but with less powerful sound of course since my car is only (ONLY! LOL!) 200 hp). I'm still impressed with my own car's power. Never had a 200 hp equipped vehicle before, that I know of. (I don't know what hp my old Chevy Truck was).
So KITT (his stunt double at least) does sound familiar to me. Guess that's another reason I love my "Suse" so much. She reminds me of KITT whenever I go for a drive.
I hope some day you get a chance to ride in it when they can really open him up good on a straightaway and hear how he runs and shifts! THAT would be awesome!
I honestly hope that the new KARR is a different model Mustang....hopefully a 2005 or something...
