I love how - even almost 40 years since the 1982 Pontiac Firearm/TransAm F-body style changed to what was represented in Knight Rider, that car STILL looks futuristic and awesome after all this time. Sure, there are some tweaks here and there over the years afterward, but the basic core of the designs remained until 2002, when the last one was made. There's a reason why its called a classic!

really appreciate all who keep the old shows alive. No comparison looking at old shows of the 80's and now. A great time to be growing up. Could kids run through the woods or neighborhoods playing GUNS today.........

Best show ever, love Kitt so much

This replica looks FANTASTIC on the outside... the interior not so much, though. I'm guessing the builder's budget isn't very high or it's still a work in progress build. I'm a K.I.T.T. snob so I notice everything about these replicas. Missing switch pods behind the steering wheel. Missing overhead console. Wrong seats. Still a cool car that I'm sure is a ton of fun for the owner. I loved how you went to all of those filming locations which made this a really fun video!

K.I.T.T. will always be a LEGEND

I get that is not a complete replica, but for someone who doesn't own one and wants one, that would do just fine for starters. :) Great episode.

Firstly what a great video! Beautifully put together, almost like travelling through time!!!. Lovely to see many locations haven't changed much. Im from Ireland and now 37 years old. I watched knight rider as a kid intrigued by the very 80s American opening sequence with the red sun casting it's light on the desert and this mysterious sharp beautiful car leaving it's dust trail! That image and music still sends a happy shiver through my body! A beautiful time when cars had edges and character! Thank you for reminding me and bringing alive again a great wonderful happy era.

Thanks to Knight Rider the Firebird was my favorite car as a kid. Wanted one then and would love one now. To bad Pontiac went out of business. If I ever got one it would be hard to decide on a KITT replica or plain Firebird. Knight Rider is my favorite show. Almost forgot about the character of RC.

Why to people hate being looked at? :) Personally, this is for me the best feeling ever. I have a newer Trans Am and little kids pointing fingers at me popping the lights in and out makes them giggle and they make me giggle too as their reaction is priceless. Some folks even stop me by the traffic lights, roll down the windows and ask me for what kind of car is that and if I can rev it.

The sunset effect is so beautiful

Awesome video, I totally agree with you about the acceptance and people's attraction when driving. I know because I own KITT too. As for driving with the guildwing it requires practice after a long while is now just natural to drive but I most say that the KITT used for the show had to be modified so he would be able to drive it easier by moving the seat back a little bit further. You are a little bit tall and that can be an issue when driving. It was awesome to see the filming locations and hear your comments.

I still have a Firebird 3.1 V6 (totally original, not modded in any way) from this era. A pain in the ass to work on and to keep on the road here in Europe (hard to find parts and the ethanol fuel likes to eat fuel pumps, lines, injectors, etc...). Totally impractical car, but still comfy and oh man still has the look after 30+ years. Unbelievable but cool that such a car can still be rented in the USA.
