Great find though!

How can you tell that the car has been hit? You can't tell from the picture, right? I don't ever recall him hitting that car, or maybe he did, don't know?

Yes that's the car he hit, the ram bars get stuck under the car while michael gets in KITT. The windows smash on the car.

I was thinking about that one too, but if it its the same one they have painted over some of the chrome paarts on the front. I'll check it out tonight :)

Yeah, maybe. It's coming back to me now.

Although, it might be worth checking out...

No it's not the same car, it is red with a black painted underside and the reg plate is 2ale209. I cant get a pic as my desktop PC is out of order at the moment.

I think they use the same car from soul survivor(season 2) to Knight flight to freedom (season 4),I'm not sure about the number plate but I think it's the same car

I thought they were the same at first too, but soul surviver one looks greenish where as the other looks more blue to me.

It's more than likley the same car. I don't know how common those cars are but I am sure they are pretty hard to find.
Booonnnnnzzzzaaaaaiii!!!!!!!! As michael turbo boosts to score the extra point. His face is so funny when he yells this and when he hits turbo boost his eyes get huge and he flies back into the seat

The one from KOTD was definetely in Killer KITT, the scene where michael escapes from the factory on his bike and the villains had that drone car.

What did you expect, the final season had lots of stock footage amongst other cheap stuff so to re-use cars is no surprise.

It wasnt the same car. I can't get a screen shot as my desktop PC isn't working and it has the DVD drive. The one in Killer KITT is a different model by the looks of it, it has a black underside (Almost like a KARR style paint job) And has a different registration plate.

Anyway they used the Drone car In Knight racer in a crash scene, so the car couldn't really be used as a prop again...
