As to the car question, all you had to do was read the article:

Finally, the character we care about most, KITT, has been officially confirmed as a Ford GT500KR.

Let me poke at you again - at least you could post a pic of the fast model.

A hint - it is the CCXR!

I'm putting my money on 1 season but they could be stubborn and make 2.





While we're talking about cars I was at a mates house yesterday who just received a black 58 Cadillac with a 360 in it. That's what I call a good looking car.

Here's a video of the debut of the Mustang.

I recently found these photoshops on a Camaro forum. They look very cool!

You can kill me for saying this, but for me, the best model for KITT is still the Pontiac Tram Am of 1982. I love the show, and the car, and it's still beautifull.
Ok, I understand that in a new show, it's need a new model but, even the camaro, it's not so sleek. But at least it is a Pontiac.
