    lol I just found this, apparently there is a new knight rider comming out (remember im in NZ, the equivelent to living under a rock).

    Finally the horrid American Gladiators 2008 finishes tonight. After the finale, NBC’s Knight Rider 2008 edition airs. The pilot episode is set in a ‘tv movie’ format, which runs 120 minutes long. The Knight Industries 3000 will be an upgrade to The Knight Industries 2000. KITT will be voiced by Val Kilmer. KITT is going to be a 2008 Ford Mustang GT500KR and will have similar features as compared to the original KITT including the ability to morph into a “battle mode”, a new effect achieved primarily with CGI animation. The KITT 3000 features are:

    * 550 horsepower solar hybrid engine
    * Sports-tuned suspension
    * Xenon headlamps with infrared night-vision
    * Metallic paint with nanotech enhanced camouflage
    * Military satellite access
    * FBI database access
    * Self-regeneration and damage repair
    * High-speed Internet
    * Artificial Intelligence
    * Voice-activated GPS system

    Pilot: 24 year-old Stanford University Ph.D. candidate Sarah Graiman is set to follow in her genius father Charles’ footsteps. Her life takes a dramatic turn when men try to abduct her. She receives a mysterious phone call from KITT, a car of her father’s creation, letting her know that her father is in danger. Sarah and KITT set off to recruit her childhood friend Mike Tracer into helping them figure out who has her father and is trying to steal KITT. Mike, having just returned from serving in Iraq is jaded and reluctant to help, but eventually agrees. This two-hour movie event is a modern day sequel to the classic 1980s television series starring Justin Bruening, Deanna Russo, Sydney Tamiia Poitier, and Bruce Davison, with a special guest appearance by David Hasselhoff.

    Yep, I still remember that 'KITT Vs Karr' episode where Karr was destroyed. And the one where Michael got shot, the one where he lost KITT in a bet, and the one where Michael got married. Ahh, memories :)
