While I'm sure many people have heard a little about this topic before or may find it old news, I found it interesting.

Apparently they will be using similar CGI effects to morph KITT into different things. Based on what I've read, KITT's stealth technology allows him to morph into different inanimate objects to blend into his enviornment. It works sort of like camoflauge. He is also supposed to be able to morph into other cars.

I discovered on <a href="http://jalopnik.com/cars/knight-rider/exclusive-first-pictures-of-kitt-from-the-new-knight-rider-tv-series-yes-its-a-shelby-gt500kr-327687.php">jalopnik.com</a> that KITT is rumored to no longer be a GM vehicle. He's now supposed to be a Shelby GT500KR. The pictures they posted do have a disclaimer that the red light was photoshopped only because the effects team did not have a working light installed yet but that is where the trademark light bar, now light bars, will be placed. True or not, I find it interesting that we are starting to see the Transformers movie now influencing other series, even if it is a Hoff-less Knight Rider.

Crap, I totally forgot about Barricade fans digging the new look if it does turn out to be the new KITT. Maybe Barricade didn't die, he just became KITT.

I wonder if Mr. Feeny's voice is going to be coming out of that car?

The concept of making the animated robots and creating a new evolutionary movie was extraordinary

well Barricade was a Saleen and this new KITT has the Shelby look. William Daniels is not going to voice the new KITT as far as i know. family member is filming the Knight Rider pilot during the next 2 weeks. 1st question he asked was about William Daniels voicing KITT.
