I dunno about that... I can think of one who can't even walk. Or even breathe, now he's dead. Or, come to think of it, breathe before he died.

Oh, , did I really just say that?

Someone just gave him too much sunscreen. Kryptonite Sunscreen! You know that's where Superman gets his power. Have you seen how pale that guy was? The same for George Reeves. Look at any episode, and I challenge you to see any pinkish hues on his face.

We all knew KITT wasn't really a GT500KR, or even a GT500, but at least he's still whipplecharged :)

And 400 pounds lighter with 450+ RWHP if tuned correctly.  Throw in a set of 3.73's and drag radials and you'll rip off an 11.6 with a good driver.  Faster than a stock GT500......

Well...aside from the ridiculous amount of commercial breaks, and the fact that the entire show was a 2-hour-long commercial for Ford...it didn't suck as bad as I thought it would. It has more potential than the pathetic "Bionic Woman" did, at least.

Plus it had The Hoff. All hail The Hoff! :headbang:

And that is Sidney Portier's daughter as the FBI agent. Not expecting the same performances from her as her father, considering the show, but she's very nice eye candy.

The thing is--and this is very smart marketing--the show has pretty much kept the door open for the original KITT to appear at some point in the future (read: when the ratings really slump badly). It appears to be in pieces and under a cover. The engine is partially opened up. But a good mechanic can put him back together in a weekend. And what do you know, Mike just happens to be a mechanic... ;)

exactly
 
So they have one for power when they need a power type shot, why would they worry about the others having power for when they are like crusing down main street gabbing with the car or something.
This is film and hollywood folks... one shot could be crusing down main at 30 then the director yells "CUT... Power Car" and the next shot shows it getting a mega burn out. On this side of the screen we never know the differance. This stuff happens all the time even with people... "CUT Stunt Double"
 
let me burst anouther bubble for some of you... In Hollywood the engine sound will often be dubbed in also
/GASP!!!


 the kitt cars sound sucks in my opinon. a stock gt sounds better
