Couldn't agree more. Pity that Ford ended the GT. That would have been a good base for a KITT. Or the Jag XK. Or the Mazda RX8.

Yup, that or the Mustang would both make a good KARR (KITTs evil brother). But neither are streamlined enough for KITT. You want a car that looks like it is going really fast even when it is stationary. The Mustang is a good muscle car but doesn't give the impression that it can go at 300mph or 0-60 in 3 seconds. And it isn't going to look pretty going around tight S-bends at 150mph.

Can the mustang even take a s bend without falling over on its back like a turtle

read the ford press release, there's some ambiguity on the matter, but there's a pretty good chance that underneath all that fiberglass and turd polish, an auto GT is lurking.

i'm not going to speak for anyone else, but i hate mustangs. not because i drive a toyota and portend that all 'merican cars are crap, but on the basis that it is a toaster amongst cars, and a crappy one at that. i have never understood why anyone who graduated high school would want one. sure, if you buy the top-end model that struggles to get double digit mileage figures, you can tear it up in a straight line. if you want to hang out with a bunch of mulleted gas-huffers at your local dragstrip, that is.

the mustang has never handled proficiently, and thanks to the incessant use of a live axle, it never will. they're built on the premise that no matter what, somebody will buy them. you don't see bullitt-esque ploys for any other "sports" cars (i use "" because i am not convinced that the mustang is a sporting car in the same way a lotus elise is). people aren't going to be swayed into buying a miami vice edition ferrari. the cars are good enough on their own. just because you plunked down 30 grand for a tarted-up gt with no spoiler doesn't make you as "cool" as steve mcqueen.

my mom had a 65 mustang. according to her, it looked great but unfortunately wasn't a very good car. apparently not much has changed in over 40 years.

i just don't get it.

I cannot agree with you more, the mustang is nothing more than a fashion accesory, an icon yes, a sports coupe no.

as much as i hate ford i love my parents car

what r the specs on the Saleen? i dont even know why make the saleen. just get a cobra right?

saleen is more of a styling thing and cobras are more race inspired
go to saleen.com they have the specs

Funny, no one's suggested using a modern Trans Am (or is that family now exclusive to Bumblebee?).

Concept:



Now, that shape I can see KITT wearing.

The Gt500 looks ugly, they should have used the concept camaro,

just added the first advertisement for it on the first page. kinda cool at first, then it just dwindles down to an eh...

"Hello Mike"

Great, they went from having KITT be as smart or smarter than his driver, to a competition over who can be a cooler 20-something.

Then again, American television seems to have forgotten the concept of dry humour except in hour-long, character-driven dramas written by Aaron Sorkin.

i LOVE how they went from an F-Body to a Ford... stick to your roots!

Yea, what's that about? How dumb to change the actual catch phrase. The KITT voice sounds okay though. With all the other changes, I was kinda expecting that they would make the voice have a Texas twang or sound camp or something.
