I wish they could get a proper Knight Rider movie (or tv show)off the ground. I love the idea that Michael Knight would be the new president of the Knight Foundation. This Tesla KITT is pretty awesome. It’s the wheels, the paint job and the red scanner that makes KITT stand out. Who would voice KITT, and who would take Michael’s place behind the wheel? I don’t think anyone could pull it off.

You really are living the dream of every little boy that grew up in the 80's. Knight Rider was an awesome show.

I love everything about this channel, the original shooting locations, all the work you put into Kittesla, all of it. It’s very much appreciated

I hope The Hoff accepts your invitation to take a ride and drive KITTesla! You've done a truly amazing thing and brought a piece of our childhoods to life too.

​@@-taz- Sure, but with only half a season, and the car not being a true character, there is not much nostalgia for it. Also, I don't remember the car being put into crazy action scenes. There has not been emotional attachment from the audience to the car (an LP 400). But there is nostalgia for others that are re not characters : Ghostbusters' Ecto-1, Batmobile (TV's series and Burton), Outatime DeLorean, the A-Team's GMC Vandura, Starsky & Hutch, The Fall Guy's GMC K2500 Sierra Grande, The Duke's General Lee Dodge Charger, Hardcastle and McCormick's Coyote (inspired by the McLaren M6A). Still KITT is unique, and possibly the one with the most nostalgia of them all, as it was a character ... a witty character :)

Don't you mean 'HAirwolf'? (Oh wait, maybe not!). LOL.

i get a little tearful when i see the return to original location segments as it reminds me of my childhood which i think we all have fond memories of.

I was fortunate enough to meet the Hoff twice growing up in Hawaii. Once was when they were filming portions of the pilot episode of “BayWatch” (they had to film the underwater scenes in Hawaii instead of California, I assume because the water was warmer, and they used Makai Pier which my dad owned an engineering company on, and I was able to meet the Hoff while they were filming). The second time I met him was years later when they were using the same pier for an episode of “BayWatch Hawaii”. Very friendly guy.

Ahh The Hoff, what an absolute legend! And how cool to get him to film a piece for your intro. The pinnacle of KITTesla content, great work!

This is incredible! Not only did The Hoff make a cameo, but also you put the icing on the cake: You giving away you’re KITTelsa. I’m so glad that I found your channel. You have lived the dream that I always wanted and I can’t thank you enough for what you and your crew do on this channel. Even if I don’t win the Tesla, y’all have made me smile and shed a tear like a child. I can’t wait for more projects, surprises, and fun. One man can definitely make a difference

Have to repeat myself: Love every minute of your Knight Rider stuff. Great modifications you did to the car, great editing and I mean… The Hoff?! Can it get any better. Well done, Perifractic!

Even the dog its so happy

Wow! The Hoff! What an honour that would be for you! I saw him once in person when he launched one of his books and signed in a bookstore here in Manchester. (only for a second, but as a German, this is like gold dust ;)).

A loooong time ago, as a conservationist working for the USDI - Bureau of Land Management, I designed, surveyed, and did the environmental clearances on the perimeter fence at the El Mirage OHV area. More than a few movies and TV shows the have been filmed there.

It so needed the wrap.

KITTesla looks amazing. You done a good job keeping the dream of Knight Rider alive. I’m 52 now and I grew up watching the series when it was first aired in the U.K. in 1982. It’s a shame General Motors hasn’t come up with a modern day successor to the original Pontiac Trans Am. Whereas manufacturers like Porsche have cleverly rehashed the original 911 to look like a modern day Porsche but still looks just as good as the original. Not an easy task to achieve though.

Tickets bought! Good luck to all who enter. Well done Perifractic on a great idea and a generous donation. Keep up the great videos 👍🏻

Imagine Kit Tesla driving in the highway and suddenly car stops and starts opening and closing doors, hood and trunk repeatedly and a loud voice coming from the car says “that was a big fart Kit!”😅

Brilliant Peri, well done! Have loved this.

You guys are just awesome. Thank you for the superb entertainment.

Well that has been a bloody good journey to take with you! Been fantastic seeing it all. nice one mate

My Father bought a new car back then and to this day my Father still laughs about me asking him to take to the Car Dealership to trade it my Green Machine for a KiTT Big Wheel. I had BIG Dreams back then haha! Every car I get now is all black exterior... with the exception of a Black and Red car I had.

So much misinformation out there sponsored by the old guard and oil barons ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I would change the voice box to a LLM (large language model) which knows everything about kit, and that pretends to be him. It would slow down the answer, but it would be so much more interactive… amazing work, as always! Such a cool thing to do, i love the series 😁👍 (PS: KZread guidelines say „Your contest must be free of charge to enter“, and the raffall site is…quite shady, at least if you check the sites that know these things. I hope you don’t get in trouble for this ticket selling…)

Don't Hassle the Hoff Hoff 9000 (Kung Fury)

👍🏽🔥 - seriously cool. As a long time Model X owner many of the aftermarket additions, we Model X owners have had for awhile. I’m also a Huge Knight Rider fan - hence the black MX. keep it up!

*New Subscriber* : The production quality of this video is excellent ! Very engaging ! I remember watching the pilot episode when it was shown in Ireland when I was 10 or 11. I was hooked ! To think years later I drove by El Mirage lake bed and never knew that was where the opening was filmed ! DOH!!!

Where did you buy the rims from, hubcaps?

Great video!

Absolutely awesome.. the Hoff looks so different. If it wasn't for his voice i wouldn't have recognised him

Where did you get the fender extensions?

So I've been looking and I can't find anything on where the original k.a.r.r is to this day and I wondered if you could find out

That is very cool!

Three cheers to puppyfractic 🎉🎉🎉

Nicely done!

Almost there boss.. KITT is bulletproof so need to armour it (level 9) and how about the hyper pursuit mode?? 🤔

KITT and KITTesla driving side by side on the desert opener would be amazing!

That is so cool that Hoff sent you a shout out😎

The car, the man, the dog - all so stylish! Your obsession for all that is KITT is so fun to watch 😎it's like a piece of childhood being remastered bit by bit

Good stuff!

A great ending, but also a bit sad, but it has been a nice walk down memory lane. Even if alot of my Knight Rider memories are now being mixed up in my head with a fractic stand in.

I have to admit: really cool!

Almost there, wait until Grok, auto summon, and auto park are ready in the next few months.
