Any geek who was around in the 80’s will have fond memories of Knight Rider. We reported previously that a new Knight Rider TV series is in the works.

The star of the show for me, more than the old Hoffster was KITT, the talking Pontiac Trans Am. Jalopnik has what they are claiming to be the first sots of the new KITT from the upcoming series.

It’s not a Pontiac Trans Am either, its a ford Mustang GT500KR. Let’s face it; this was most likely a paid product placement from Ford. That’s all irrelevant to me, I still think the Mustang GT500KR is one of the hottest cars on the road. Please TV gods don’t let the new series suck as badly as the TV movies they made based on the original show.
