If they ever bring back this KR reboot they've been going on about for 4 years, I think they should bring the original KITT. I would be okay if they would at least innovate on the older model, or do a body swap on a car that still adheres to some of the classics while being fresh and new.

It'd be nice to see KITT with LEDs, aerodynamic grill vents, and an up to date interior. It would be more disappointing to see KITT with the bulkier exterior that most new cars behold. It already didn't work in 2008.
I think that until the C8 there was never a car that had the right lines of the 1982 Trans Am, especially in black. I agree with you on every car all the "reboots" have used over the years since the original, they've all sucked. But the C8 is a worthy successor.

Knight Rider was my second favorite show growing up right behind the Dukes so I'm with you on everything you said. But I just think the C8 is perfect and the first perfect car befitting KITT since the '82 Trans Am.

Part of the problem with all the reboots since the original went off the air is that they used different colors if I'm not mistaken. KITT must be black with tan interior.
