Hi check this out, oh my god,
http://www.waxhoff.com/ (turn on volume) That came from an Australian pay T.V. internet site called TV1. Anyway,Just like to say what has been on my mind about the new KITT for the new movie if it should happen. Back in 1982 when Knight Rider was new, Glen A.Larson had the first 2 new Pontiac Trans-ams off the production line to do the pilot episode. A car that the General public would of had no or very little knowledge about. (I'm assuming). So when (thinking positive here) they do a movie, I think it should be the same sort of deal. A brand new car with some exterior mods like the custom front nose and rear black out and killer dash. Something that will blend in a bit, but be different enough to make you want one for 20 years!!! Also I think it would be cool if the new K.I.T.T had the Adaptive Camouflage from the Bond 007 Aston Martin Vanquish. Couldn't over use it though. But its gunna be hard to do something impressive we haven't already seen on movies like Fast and Furious and shows like Pimp my Ride, not to mention the stuff which is in standard cars now!!! Oh well, we'll have to wait and see I guess. Thanks for reading my 2 cents!

Knight Rider, it rules my life. Can't stop thinking about it! I am obsessed!!!!

I very much agree with you. KITT is a technologically advanced car. I strongly think that a 1982 trans-am is not going to be accepted as a technologically advanced car today by the general audience (don't get me wrong it is a classic), but if the new film is going to taken seriously then they should bring in a new car to wow the audience.

Hehe...that's one of my favourite channels and as soon as they posted it on the internet I played it! I even got my friends to have a go, although they thought there was something seriously weird about it (well, there kind of is). ANYWAY, as much as I LOVE the original KITT, I think *crosses fingers about movie* that his exterior should be made more towards today's audiences (basically I'm agreeing with you!). I'm not talking about the Batman Begins sort of car; but more one that will draw attention but can still pass as a car on the road (watch Batman Begins and you'll know what I'm talking about..or even any Batman movie...hehe, Batmobile). I look forward to seeing what they'll do about his internal controls because cars these days have it all. It shows just how much KITT was ahead of his time. Who knows...someday we may be able to go faster than light speeds in space. Anything's possible! Sorry if I'm not making sense and rambling.

I think they should keep the 1982 Trans Am
