I was OBSESSED with Knight rider and I was so excited when this made for tv movie came out. I was so heart broken as a kid that nothing ever came of it. and to see it left like this breaks it all over again. I hope it makes its way back to glory!

[@downix]

Right there with you

[@digitalmagicAR]

I never liked that car back then because it wasn't nearly as cool, as well done, or as fast as the KITT Trans Am they chose to not use in the TV movie. But I'm glad to see it survive and looking a little better than last time I saw it and hope it goes to a good home.

[@SuperSnakePlissken]

Even as a kid watching the TV movie, I remember thinking how can I see KITT's red light go back and forth if the car is red? It should have been black!

[@archangel5627]

I grew up watching the original Knight Rider tv show and I never missed an episode when it was new. When 1990 rolled around and they released the Knight Rider 2000 TV movie, I was so excited to see how they upgraded KITT. I have to say that I was disappointed. KITT should always be all Black in color. I never liked the red paint job. I do find it bizarre that the producers of the show didn’t use a modern Trans Am or the Pontiac Banshee for that matter. Clearly they had very different people working on Knight Rider 2000 in comparison to the original tv show. Anyways, it’s super cool to see that an original Knight Rider 2000 Hero car is still intact and in one piece. Hopefully it finds a good home where they completely restore it.

[@thepeacockmaster]

I agree with you, man.

[@LatitudeSky]

One of the cool things about Knight Rider 2000, maybe the ONLY cool thing, were the sound effects. Since the movie was set in the year 2000, the sound engineers went back to the movie 2001: Space Odyssey and borrowed a LOT of the sound effects and used them throughout the Knight Rider 2000 movie. If you pay attention to sound design, it was a nice Easter Egg.

[@somebuddyX]

Thanks for the video! It's cool seeing that car again.

[@jonmyers8046]

I loved the original series, but this car has such beautiful lines. If I had the money, I'd restore it and make it roadworthy.

I loved the original Knight Rider show and the Knight Rider Historians are awesome, but I don't care for this abomination at all. It misses the whole point of the Knight Industries 2000 looking and driving like a normal car with hidden Sci Fi Features. It actually looks like being 20 years older than the slightly altered Trans Am's, as if it came straight out of the Pop Art Era. And it's missing more than a paint shop ... the surface is wobbly and the lines are not going through very well.

Weird, I was just thinking about that movie a couple of days ago. I was in college when they shot it here in Texas, at locations I knew well, which was exciting for me-being a huge Knight Rider fan. I didn’t know the boat version had sunk, but I remember that scene well, seeing KITT floating down the River Walk-and they also shot some scenes in Corpus Christi as well. I can’t buy KITT 4000, but it’s cool knowing he’s still around.

The neatest thing about the black car was that it was a real Trans Am with modified features. Why didn't they use a real Banshee and add a nose and black the tail lights?

[@MahbodMD1]

I didn't do any research on this but probably because the banshee was a concept car it wasn't like you could go to a dealership and buy one. Probably only a few of them were made and all belonged to Pontiac.

Universal was not allowed to. Pontiac didn't wanna go over the Trans Am drama in their dealerships where people wanted to buy a Knight Rider edition.

Additionally, it would probably need bumpers added to its design. The front is interesting, but I'm not sure how I feel about the back. I hadn't noticed that part before. I wonder why they didn't go with "3000"? He could have continued to go with "KITT".

[@AtmxDawg24]

[@dannyr2976]

​@@NickKnatterton. The Knight 4000 is the 'KIFT' that keeps on giving, lol. Seriously though, part of me likes external design, but part of me doesn't. The proportions are strange, it has a HUGE rear and front over hang that throws off the whole look, couldn't imagine this car doing a turbo boost as it's so low to the ground relative to the 82' trans am.

[@ryanjohnson6223]

I'm a fan of the original series and I've watched the TV movie. To be honest the TV movie wasn't very good. There are episodes from the TV show that are better than the TV movie. The 4000 doesn't really prove it's superiority to the 2000, when you look at the dash there are 4 buttons , tv set and it has virtual reality and it shoots ultra shocks at people. I think the movie would have done itself justice by having more stuff with the new car and having the original Trans AM in the movie getting destroyed by the villain and then replaced by the 4000 with Kitt inside. I also think a cameo with April, Bonnie and CJ would have greatly helped the show. Killing off Devon was kind of a waste. I didn't think the new villain was that great, A villain like Garth and his mother would have been better or a group of villains with the addition of KARR, Goliath with Garth at the helm with some of the tycoons or women villains would have been great. I would say the movie is about average. Quick Note; Michael Knight had a Trans AM in the original pilot of Knight of the Phoenix. I find it hard to believe he would be all excited over his 1957 Chevy the whole time when he had his Trans Am. It really should've been in the TV movie as homage to KITT.
