its sponsered by ford...

Still looks like a pretty cool show though, i'll probably watch it. I dont care too much that its a mustang because in the original show nothing on the car was factory. Dont think of it as a mustang think of it as a super car designed to look like a mustang so it will blend in with other cars on the road.

IMO the mustang is pretty fugly. I wont be watching the show, seems like a tired gimmick.

Edmunds has an article:

"Most of the time KITT looks just like a bone-stock Shelby Mustang GT500KR with red lights in its hood scoops and a futuristic interior. When the going gets hairy, however, the new KITT morphs into Attack mode at the push of a button."

That taken from the edmunds article and judging from the pictures it sound like KITT is going to look like a plan mustang and then morph into that ugly thing in the picture. Looks like this show is designed to appeal to 12 year olds and not fans of the original show. From the fact that the car completely changes with the push of a button I have changed my opinion of the show and will not be watching.

Well, then there was always the KnighRider 2000 extraveganze where KITT was a 57 Bel Air...

Thing looks like Barracade having a seizure and can't transform

I liked the part when you see the rear panel and it says, "To Punish and enslave"

haha. I think they are bringing in someone new to drive the new KITT. But david hasselhoff said he is excited to make a cameo in it.

I'm actually relieved that they made it a Mustang. Think of how many of them they'll total in the process of making that show.

Better a Mustang than an F-body if you ask me.

philly rs · 02-03-2008, 11:33 AM

oh sweet, hes gonna make an cameo? i may watch that just to see that!!
