Yeah, I boycotted the show permanently in my house when I found out they used a Mustang. Not that there is anything wrong w/ a 'Stang - it's just that there were so many other good choices for a high-tech futuristic type car that would fall along the lines of the original KITT concept. (RX-8...) Money talks though and I guess Ford had plenty (back then) to buy out the role.

What's KITT's voice sound like these days? Is it the same?

CyberPitz 08-15-2008 05:23 PM

A Ricestang, anybody?

Deathcraft 08-15-2008 05:43 PM

Lambo doors????? I had high hopes for that show...but now.......I don't know anymore..!

mikeyfuzz 08-15-2008 05:44 PM

SlayerRX8 08-15-2008 06:14 PM

DSEA 08-15-2008 07:07 PM

Altair 8 08-16-2008 05:38 PM

Razz1 08-16-2008 07:42 PM

The star of the show is an idiot. He couldn't answer one question.

But at least Kitt had some brains. He would open the door for that jerk.

Or maybe Kitt is stuoid too!

Mustang and high tch are on the opposite ends of the Spectrum.

shaunv74 08-16-2008 07:46 PM

Someone post that in "what not to do to your car!"

I love the rear air intakes for a front engine car.

And what's with the transformer into a truck bit? I guess if the badguys have jeeps...

I foresee an Epic ACME Failure for this show. Im serious.

kersh4w 08-17-2008 06:12 PM

maybe it can morph into a non-piece of shit car?

It is capable of changing but the button is forever lost, made inaccessible due to the intial transformation. The car shall forever remain in Super Hydraulic Intelligent Transport Mode. S.H.I.T. Mode FTW!

Aeterna 08-20-2008 12:32 PM

An epiphany...
 
Hmmph... you know what? I just realized I hate television...










thanks NBC

thanks Val Kilmer

thanks Ford (though you still partially fund our Mazda projects)

(Insert shooting star and 'The More You Know' jingle here)

I love the reaction of the people when it's unveiled. About half went completely quiet.

Seriously that car is a lesson in what not to do to your car. Lambo doors + plastic stick ons + incredibly crappy rims.

This fails on so many levels...

RX8YA 08-20-2008 01:19 PM

IM so mad at this car and the people who thought this was cool. The snorkel hood thing looks like our gauge cluster lol.
