It's a shame they're so hard to find nowadays and with the prices for it on Ebay, it's difficult to justify the purchase but the lowest I'm seeing right now is about 500, price of a Series X really. Does anyone here happen to own it and is it worth the price? Always wanted one as a kid lol

This one is going for $137.50 + $12.50 shipping:

When it first came out i didn't feel like the wheels were accurate enough for the purchase price of I think $60. It should have come with a custom Michael Knight figure for that price.

Looks like it sold for $244.50 plus shipping and it's not even the ELITE version. Pretty high dollar for any of the 1:18 KITTs now, including the older Ertl Joyride versions.
One man did make a difference.

I've got the Diamond model, the 3 minimates, the joyride under a plastic case. The Hallmark ornament model I won from the trivia contest on this forum from Joe Huth along with tons of magazines clippings from articles and a knight rider thermos and lunchbox. A few of the mini hothweel kitts. Not sure I'll ever need to buy anymore knight rider merchandise for the rest of my life.
