Finally with new information relating to the new show, I'd like to bring back the idea of KARR's return. Originally I had the idea of KARR being a Dodge Charger SRT8. Simply because, well the Charger is one of the most aggressive looking cars you'll ever see on the road. Not too mention the Charger is pretty fast, powerful and the fact that it's a sedan means it could carry a few bad guy henchmen along with it. But a few people were talking about the Challenger instead and that in itself is an obvious choice. The Challenger is faster than the Charger, handles better, looks better (in some people's opinion), and is a coupe, like the Mustang. The new Camaro is also a decent choice for KARR, although it'll still be a few months before a Camaro is able to be purchased and the Challenger is up for grabs now. Plus the Mustang is clearly retro and so is the Challenger, which makes them a good pair, but then we can say that yes, the Camaro is pretty aggressive looking. And as agressive as the Camaro is, it looks too modern if you ask me. KARR should be modeled after a more retro car because I see him as more of an "old man" type villain. The Camaro looks too new and "hip" than it does old and dignified. Personally I'd prefer a Mopar over the Bowtie, but that's just me.
One thing is for sure, I would hate if KARR turned out to be a Mustang. I mean sure KARR was a Trans Am like KITT was, but that's because KARR was the prototype for KITT. Now that KARR is destroyed, he can be rebuilt into what ever they want and making him a Mustang would just be silly. Chances are however that because Ford is sponsoring the series, KARR will simply be a 2010 Mustang to challenge KITT's 2008 appearance. But as a fan who enjoys writing, I'll dream all I want to dream.
So let's say KARR is a Dodge Challenger. He'd obviously be painted black, which makes the Challenger look very Sexy. The retro dual hood scoops could house his yellow visor, which from a distance would look like yellow eyes. He'd be voiced by Terrance Stamp, and for those who might not know who he is, you can hear is voice here, as Halo's Prophet of Truth (the first alien to speak in the video who wears the crown):

I cannot think of anyone else who can play the voice of KARR better. And unlike KITT, KARR wont have huge wings or super fancy ground effects to make him look bright an exciting. He'd look stock, all black, and dignified. He doesn't need to be flashy to be evil. Ladies and Gentlemen... KARR!
