About 20 years ago Bose was experimenting with an electromagnetic active suspension system that would keep the car level at all times. This system could also jump over small obstacles, check out the Lexus LS 400 doing a mini Turbo Boost at 1:30.

Re: Original Knight Rider Launch Commercial
That's a great find, I remember seeing a picture of KITT from that promo in auto cruise and always wondered what was going on.

Re: Knight Rider rights.
Blowersho, you're right. It's been so long that i'm starting to forget the history of attempts to bring knight rider to the big screen. We were told a big announcement was supposed to be made and he should keep hush hush about the project a while ago. Haven't heard anything new even before the pand...

Re: Knight Rider rights.
David went to the Weinstein company about a decade before Glen Larson announced that he was working on a script for the movie. David said that they wanted them to do a KR movie but with the car not talking. David wasn't happy with that so it fell apart. Decade later Glen finished his script or firs...

Knight Industries cpu in upcoming movie
A couple of weeks ago I went to see Justice League and saw a trailer for a movie called Player One Ready with many 80's references. Even though I didn't see K.I.T.T my niece mentioned that he is supposed to be in it. I checked out the details for it and sure enough it says that the Time Machine from...

Re: Stuff you hate in KR
Well...I know in my fictitious Season 5 notes, once KITT faces a conflict with the founding laws and obeys saving the life of his pilot over breaking the rule of killing a Human being, he secretly creates his 'son' before the building conflict wipes his circuits. This new car would have become the ...

Re: KITT and Turboboost
I would have to watch it again to be 100% sure but in KOTJ when the bad guys are shooting at KITT and there is a truck blocking the road just before they jump he says "we may not clear".

Re: KARR's appearance in KR 2008?
You are correct, they took KITT's most formidable foe and flushed him down the toilet along with the KR franchise for decades to come. I'm not even sure how the K3000 destroyed KARR because at that time his nano tech wasn't functional and KARR's was.

Re: Honda NSX
Many folks had suggested the previous version of the NSX as an ideal KITT for a feature film. I like this new one as well. One problem though with going with a more upscale car model that is ultra-low-slung is the cost of the stunts and especially turbo boosting. I'm of the firm belief that no futu...

Re: Devon Miles Knight Rider Canon
I was wishing that it was never made about...10...15 minutes into it's original airing date. I know what you mean, I had a few buddies come over on the day it aired and we were all very excited to see KR return. We were disappointed to see Michael washed up, finding out that K.I.T.T had been disman...

Re: Devon Miles Knight Rider Canon
KR 2000 is a direct continuation of the original with the three main characters, unfortunately it is canon even though most fans wish it was never made.

I checked the video again for that and I think kitt was too close to the gate to initiate it.At best he could have maybe used pursuit mode and maybe get out in time or maybe ski mode but I doubt samsung wanted to spend the big bucks on cgi to show off kitt's features since they really didn't show o...

True but what about Turbo Boost?Knight Racer wrote:He's the Hoff.He probably had his gates covered in MBS.Either that or with Kitt getting older over the years his shell is worn off to the point where its probably not as strong as it used to be.blowersho wrote:That's awesome but a gate can't stop KITT.
