On the "SPECIAL FEATURES COMPARISON" : I found some of it humorous, incorrect, and at least one thing interesting
Mini-KITT Reconnaissance Drone <- Sounds like Viper - yet again
No mention of Turbo Boost - Yet

I do not get the "edit" button for the above to make the web site hidden ("spoiler") so take this as a caution.
If what the web site says to be true about the vehicle features.

You don't need a spoiler tag, this has been posted either on here and is actually just a little ways down. It was nothing more than a joke that Popular Mechanics went and ran with, apparently not being able to tell they were joking.
Here's the first topic on this:

Even with looking at the picture comparison of the K2000 vs. K3000, I still like the looks of the old Trans Am compared to the new Mustang. The old T/A does look like it has more aerodynamics than the Mustang does. But, I guess I'll have to get used to it.

The TA does look better I doubt anyone can argue that.

How can they say that the original KITT didn't have an in-dash audio-video system? What were those screens to the right of the main gauges? And how about 360 degree video survailance? I distinctly remember Michael Knight, using the in-dash monitors, being able to watch an unscrupulious gas station attendant unsuccessfully try to puncture KITT's rear tires. And, perhaps most laughable of all, how in the world can that list say that the original KITT did not have keyless entry?!? All Michael had to do was call KITT from his wrist commlink, and KITT would start his engine, travel to him, and open the door! If that's not keyless entry, then I don't know what is!
This not to say anything bad about the new car or new series. I'm really curious to see what they do with this Mustang. I just found some of the comparisons on that Popular Mechanics chart downright laughable!
