What was Knight Rider called in your country?
I know in many countries where Knight Rider is dubbed into the native language, they don't literally translate the title "Knight Rider". For example, in some countries I think the show is called "supermachina" or something like that, basically "Super Machine".
So what was the name of the show in your country, and how would it translate into English?

I think in spanish it is called "Elfantasticomagnific" or something like
that. Some spanish guy came running up to me and my car once
saying that and I was like "What?"
Finally after a few other non understood words, he saaid KITT. I was
like OHHHHHHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, Yeah!
I may have pronounced that a bit off as it was a few years ago he said
that to me.
