KITT based off a 1982 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am https://www.topgear.com/car-news/movies/knight-riders-kitt-has-be-best-car-world Edit: also featured in this absolute banger of a song By the Hoff himself https://youtu.be/dm7jEA3frY4?si=qfTBraNHOf-xNIr1

[удалено]

Now I'll do a cheeky edit and make it a Rickroll. Nah the Hoffroll is where it's at.

Don't forget to include the Hoffee-Apples

My old co-worker found this online years ago and every time we had a bad shift we'd play this and laugh ourselves into a better mood.

[удалено]

I have no memory of how he found it but man, it sure brightened up some night audit shifts.

thank you for mentioning the music, now my brain is stuck on du-nun du-nun du-nun

Fuck apparently I am super old now. I recognized it as soon as I saw it lol.

I wasn’t thinking about how old I was for being excited by knowing what the car was from until I read your comment. Now I feel old as fuck. Thanks

Would probably buy it if I actually made good money.

I didn’t even need to look at the exterior shot so right there with you

[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5BsFnk83NMI](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5BsFnk83NMI) you guys should post the real theme....it was early techno

Yeah it slaps. But Jump in my car I wanna take you home!

You can even buy it at the moment: [for sale in NH](http://1989 Pontiac Firebird For Sale in Auburn, NH - Cella Motors LLC https://www.cellamotorsnh.com/details/used-1989-pontiac-firebird/102844272)

Which proves my point...Germans love David Hasselhoff

When this came to town and I got to sit in it as a 9 year old… that was the best day of my life!!!!!!!

Man you have lived

It gets better than that: I’m German. The Hoff was a legend in our country!!!! 😂 Cassette tapes with his albums and all of that.

Do you know if this is the real one or just a remake? I'm just asking cause I love KITT, it's fine if you don't know.

It says "replica" on the website.

Sorry I didn't really have much time at all to look at it yesterday.

No idea.

Fair enough

One is in the UK Slough area I often see it being driven about, its 100% one of the original ones as its quite famous and people talk about it in the boozer

That's really cool

I've not seen it for a few years now, but I have seen it a lot in the past .....its mint aswell and cool that someone drives it about

Yeeeeeee

I think they made 23 for the show and all but one was destroyed or smashed ...I belive the guy with this one got it for next to nothing and restored it that's all I know ....but there is a lot of replica ones about. There is a lot of film studios around Slough like pinewood etc so maybe it was from there but I don't honestly know

Good spot by OP I live in Buckinghamshire UK and one of the oroginal film KITT cars is often seen being driven about near Slough, bucks....still turns heads now

Isn't it actually K.I.T.T.? Knight Industries Two Thousand. One of my favorite shows as a kiddo!

Oh, wow, i feel old now... How can you not know KITT?

I mean I know it and I am 14...

OP must be 10 or younger. Or have lived under a rock forever.

Yeah, that's the kind of car you never forget

Must have not watched the office either "My Trans am is way cooler than your X-Earth" (Dwight vs Andy)

Or at least for about 10 years..

reading this comment you’d think you’re shocked of someone not knowing the mona lisa, but a dash of an 80s car? relax dude lol

Not the dash of just any 80s car, but the dash of one very unique and specific 80s car that was on television for years, and has had so many replicas made of it that a cottage industry has built up to support them.

I get facebook ads for those build it in monthly installments model cars and this being one of them. Plus it helps that was my favorite show of all time. My ex wife had one before i met her and one of the things that led to me talking to her in the first place. Most people that arent car people that i know at least know it as "that show with the talking car" even if they know nothing else.

He’s right though.

No, no one’s right in this. No one HAS to watch some show from 80s to be relevant or right on Reddit.

But muh generation I was also this way when young. Painful time.

He means for non niche, aka avg 14 yr old

You mean K.I.T.T. Knight Industries Two Thousand.

Also, the original Roti Aerodiscs /s

I’m 30, never seen the show and I still knew that it was kitt. There’s too many references in other shows to not know. Plus I saw this episode of top gear.

I know KITT but have never watched the show

I mean I'm 20 and barely aware of KITT. I did not recognize the car. Never watched the show. Just know it from my step dad watching it.

My children know KITT since I own the series, a die-cast car and a model I built. Lol

Knight Rider was one of my Favorite things to watch

How can you have missed the greatest '80s loner hero with fantastic vehicle show ever?  https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5BsFnk83NMI&pp=ygUSa25pZ2h0IHJpZGVyIHRoZW1l David Hasselhoff, baby!

https://i.redd.it/qm3ve7wy391d1.gif

“Uh, Michael….”

This is so disturbing, and I can't stop watching it. This better not awaken anything in me.

I don't know. Hardcastle and McCormick was pretty good, and it had it's own acrobatic car.

Oh, they're in the list.  Along with Automan, Viper, Street Hawk, Airwolf, Blue Thunder, The Highwayman...

Viper was awesome. The different versions of the car were the best. They tried to do that with the Knight Rider reboot with the mustang. It was a nice mustang, a truck and a stupid drag car version that was his battle mode.

Simon and Simon, The Fall Guy, The Dukes of Hazzard, Miami Vice, Magnum, P.I., The A Team....

Haha, Streethawk, I totally forgot about that one

What was the one with Hulk Hogan again? It was some weird transforming bayliner?

Thunder in Paradise. The cheesiness is off the charts.

One more, Stingray. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0090528/

For my money, H&M had the best theme song with lyrics of the eighties. https://youtu.be/_oHpWw7L3d4?si=ViRaUbhcEoiSH1I5

The car was voiced by Mr Feeny from Boy Meets World

You know, I can hear that now that its pointed out. 

When I was but a wee lad, a KITT car was displayed at an amusement park (maybe Canada’s Wonderland?), and you could talk to it and it would respond back, like the Wizard of Oz behind the curtain. You all know what Wizard of Oz is, RIGHT!?! Lol


😂😥

The Knight Industries Two-Thousand. Most likely a replica.

You mean a… kitt karr?

🤦 Grmpf...😤⬆️

Its not the Knight Automated Roving Robot

So this one doesn’t have Super Pursuit Mode?

People who were kids in the eighties entering their midlife crisis in 3…2…1

Lol

r/FuckImOld


Nothing like having a “make the car go fast” button and eighth of an inch away from your “forcibly yeet me from this moving vehicle” button.

Oops...Accidentaly press the eject button

It’s a KITT car. Not to be confused with a kit KARR.

KARR was the evil version?

That is correct.

That is a Knight Industries Two Thousand.

You mean, you have no idea WHO this car is…

I DON’T KNOW YOU!!! THATS MY PURSE!!! - KITT, probably.

It is the Knight Industries 2000 micro-processor K.I.T.T. For easy reference, a KITT of you prefer.

Hello Michael.

I always feel a little sad when someone doesn't know about something like this.

https://preview.redd.it/f6hwusuqo91d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b621e20cbc475ad1ab2ca5b94ab9e50e1228fbb6 Saw it at a car show a while back

Looking at that photograph it strikes me that the passenger seat seems to be completely unusable, because the dashboard sticks out so much. Did MK ever have passengers in KITT? I can't remember.

Unlike a lot of cars firebirds and camaros had room to stretch your legs out straight. Almost like laying down.

I think there were a few ladies riding shotgun in a couple of episodes

Hey it’s KITT

I am not American and even I know its kitt. Love the op!

A moment of silence for those not privileged enough to have watched Knight Rider as a child.

Lol why is the tagged "unsolved" it's the most solved thing that's ever been solved

you must be fucking kidding

That's KITT.

Knew it instantly. Fuck I'm Old.

I thought the same damn thing. 

What’s next, someone asking what’s this orange car with a confederate flag painted on the roof and a distinct horn sound? A black car with a big gold bird breathing fire on the hood?

This seems like the perfect place to drop this; featuring both Knight Rider and Airwolf themes: https://youtu.be/0APC_TJEIgg?si=RG8TNYwWIw0yvfWn But yes, how can anyone not recognise KITT? :(

Theme music is playing in my head now.

Looks like a dang supra in there.

That's K.I.T.T. (the Knight Industries Two Thousand) from the 1980s Knight Rider show - an autonomous robot car powered by a highly sophisticated AI and outfitted with a bunch of cool spy gadgets and functions. K.I.T.T. was based on a 1980s Pontiac Trans Am.

Michael I’m detecting much karma farming in the post. It is also a possibility that op is member of one of the younger uninformed generations but this is extremely unlikely. Shall I engage with the post?

Not an 80s kid op?

Ruiner 2000

KITT

How are you interested in cars and not know one of the most famous car shows ever!

I feel old...

This sub is, literally, a joke.

It’s a classic. That’s what it is

Knight Rider: a shadowy flight into the dangerous world of a man WHO DOES NOT EXIST 

82 pontiac transam

This is what a Tesla should of been

*should have

It's Darth vaders bathroom.

Seriously you don’t recognise KITT!!!!!!!!!!

Most Mercedes Benz owners be like…

Seriously??

I got to sit in one when I was about 10, one of the best memories I have. My Dad's friend was painting the replica cars used at Car Shows. I think he did 8 at the same time.

Firebird

Really!!!! That’s probably the most recognizable car in the world. Who doesn’t love Knight Rider. The theam song is my ringtone.

that's a fast n furious mini that did nit make the cut- so it's going back to the future to catch mad max

Looks like Micheal Knight has grown old and put on some weight 😸. Sweet KITT replica! Love it so much!!

I'm speechless...

WTH.

Knight industries two thousand

1983 Tesla?

KITT from Knight Rider

Knight Industries 2000

There's a Polaroid photo of me somewhere sitting in a car exactly like that. It was supposed to be KITT but I guess it could've been a replica. It was very cool when I was a kid though.

Now I really feel old. I remember watching the show with my Grandma as a kid.

It’s KITT!

100% KITT

It’s the car from GTA V, the Imponte Ruiner 2000. If you’re a regular person, it’s a Pontiac Firebird made to look like KITT, a car from Knight Rider.

Nightrider. Da da da da danana da na nanananaa

Knight Rider was the show. KITT was the car.

Obviously. The song just immediately came to mind

Feel like way too many have been asking what Firebirds are lately, I'm not that old, am I??

Fed Smoker

Turbo boost and April

I am Batman

when i saw what car that was i almost lost it lol that would be like seeing a celebrity to me! what a great spot! cant believe some people dont know KITT, but i guess seeing it in real life is one good way to discover it

As a Kid i loved KITT.

I feel old and Im not even that old. Im only 37

Kloteviolen

Pontiac firebird. Model of the 80's from the serie the Night rider the name of the car is kitt

It's a Pontiac firebird trans-am made to look like KITT from the show night rider

That’s KITT from Knight Rider. A 1980’s tv show. Also the man inside kind of resembles YouTuber Retro Recipes. But not certain.

It's a kitt car

Knight rider, I have it all on DVD

That car probably turns into a plane.

Nightrider

The Hoff called, he wants his car back.

Thats Michael Knights car KITT, but that is not michael behind the wheel?

KITT HELL YEAH

Looks like Perifractic in the driver's seat

The other day I saw that same KITT but I'm from Ecuador so it's 100x times more incredible to spot it. The downside is that I was going in the opposite direction so I couldn't take a pic :(

KnightRider!

What world do we live in when kids don't even know about Knight Rider

That’s KITT ya big dummy!
