Re: The New Knight Rider Car! OMG!

The Koenigsegg was just a fan dream car, it was never going to be KITT. I remember the Koenigsegg pictures swimming around the net a few years ago with the hope it would be the KITT car.

Yep...looks like KITT is a Ford Mustang after all...

KITT Loses Its Voice

Only two weeks before it is scheduled to debut, Knight Rider has lost the voice of KITT, the talking car. NBC disclosed that General Motors had asked Will Arnett to drop the voice-over role, maintaining that it conflicted with his work as the announcer for GMC Trucks. (KITT is a Ford Mustang.) Arnett had previously recorded his Knight Rider work, which had become part of the already-completed Knight Rider episodes. NBC said Wednesday that it will replace the Arnett tracks in the next week with new tracks recorded by onetime Batman Val Kilmer. (Presumably the makers of the Batmobile will have no objection.)

LOL @ the conflict of interest.

LOL! Falcon, on the bat joke. But I love the Mustang and when I saw the Transformers and saw that Shelby Police car, I said man I would love to have that car lights and all. Could you imagine trying to escape a 500 HP Mustang. No Chance.

That Mustang in Transformers is SUPER nice. I'm guessing it's a suped up version of the one in I Am Legend?

i thought it was a dodge charger?

edit: never mind, it was a mustang, lol.

Falcon,

Of course it's suped up, it transforms , but I think it's a Shelby 500GT KR modified by ROUSH.
