Does anyone know who designed and built the new Attack Mode Knight Industries Three Thousand? I find only some informations about the Attack Mode KITT from the movie...

Our old "friend" Harald Belker apparently designed it, not sure who built it though.

That is a very good question because I have been getting conflicting information on that.
Edmunds inside line says...
The production has ordered up two of the Attack KITTs and has had Cinema Vehicle Services construct them over the base of a standard Ford Mustang GT.

I had heard both Cinema Vehicle Services from one source and Picture Car Warehouse from another and was still pondering what one it was when I went to Comic Con. KRO had interviewed Ted Moser of Picture Car Warehouse

But hearing the name of the other company made me think they had made a switch for Attack KITT. At the reveal some T shirts gave me my answer so I took this picture as evidence.
Though maybe it is possible that they both worked on it. If anyone close to production has more info, I know we all like to make sure the right people get credit.

I was at the comic con unveiling, I remember the producer said that it cost them a pretty penny to make, I almost certain they said the "GEM" company (Global Electric Motorcars) built the Attack KI3T.

I still think the version in the pilot looked better. Less pimp my KITT, more meaning full and neater.

Hi,
I found this page (
http://entertainment.howstuffworks.com/ ... /printable" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;) with some words from Ray Claridge, founder of Cinema Vehicles. So, Cinema Vehicles was involved with the KI3T for the movie... But nothing about the show...
