It was the 1980's and Michael Knight was taking on the biggest and baddest criminals in the era. They were so bad he needed a multi million dollar, indesructable. The coolest car on earth but..... he never had a gun. All these baddies would be armed to the teeth and michael was unarmed. Just did no...

another thing that bugged me(although not many people could have done it better) is that they always cut out the landing of the turbo boost,but you can clearly see kitts nose getting smashed and all bent anyway. Yeah I mentioned that up above. Just when it seemed like the car was coming down at a r...

Things that annoy me: THE PACING --I know it was the 80s and people had longer attention spans back then... but dang, some of these episodes are slow! I tried watching my DVDs all the way through at first, but eventually had to fastforward to the action scenes. THE SAME LOCATIONS --Did KITT and Mich...

Knight Rider was MADE for the 80s. It was an action show with lots of cool stunts, it had that funky 80s soundtrack, and most importantly, it was light and fun. In the 90s they started using cheesy computer effects for everything instead of real, practical stunts. And the music got really cheap and ...

I was looking at the car again and another error just popped out at me: the cowl thing on the hood is way too centered. There should be a line straight down the middle, but the cowl overlaps it. It's such a basic part of KITT's design, I don't know how anybody could screw it up. It's becoming more a...

No, I don't think so. The factory probably has problems with the huge demand that they can't keep up, resulting in a backlog. Another theory is that this is a limited run of 10,000 pieces, as Skav pointed out earlier. Not to mention that its almost Christmas, where fans may buy more than one to giv...

I do have one of those old 1:16 Firebird kits which I can modify into a more accurate KITT... someday. :) Check out some pics of my 1982 1:24 scale Monogram Trans Am. If you build your Firebird as a stock model, this is probably what it will look like (although mine is a hard-top) Thanks for the pi...

If you look back in this thread a little bit, I've pointed this out as well. It doesn't look quite right from a side view, you are correct, but I personally believe the reason the nose was trimmed shorter on the bottom was to provide better access to the grappling hook underneath. I sure HOPE that'...

While I agree they overused the models towards the end of the series, the one shot that still impresses me is in Brother's Keeper, when KITT turboboosts over the prison wall. It's obviously a model and doesn't have the weight of a real car, but it's still cool as hell. That is one of the best action...

Hi all, I'm new here and just got the car myself from diecastmuscle. I have to say I'm really impressed overall, but the front end really bugs me. It hardly slopes down at all, and is way too short and high! The car looks good from above, but from ground level it's kinda goofy. I haven't heard anyon...
