yes, and the story would be more interesting since they're using a different car. A Mustang...movie sure packed with action. Can't wait to watch biggrin.gif

some of you might still be wondering why they picked a Ford Mustang to replace the Pontiac Trans Am as KITT...and I just found this on Wikipedia.

The television show spawned two made-for-television movies:

    * Knight Rider 2000, a 1991 sequel movie featuring Michael Knight and Devon Miles, who is killed with KITT being given a new sporty red body (provided by the Pontiac Banshee IV concept car) as the Knight 4000, and serving as a Television pilot for a would-be new series starring Susan Norman as Shawn McCormick, but it did not sell.
    * Knight Rider 2010, a 1994 movie very loosely based on the show. In this case, a Classic 1969 Ford Mustang 1 replaces the legendary Pontiac Trans Am, and there are very few links to the original show, so much so that it may not be considered canon other than for carrying the Knight Rider title.

In 1997, the fleet of intelligent vehicles grew in the TV series Team Knight Rider. Set sometime in the near future, the show featured Attack Beast, a Ford F-150 all-terrain vehicle; Dante, a Ford Expedition sport-utility vehicle; Domino, a Ford Mustang convertible; and Kat and Plato, twin customized motorcycles. The shows lead stars included Brixton Karnes, Christine Steel and Kathy Tragesar. Michael Knight returned at the end of the final episode of the first season, though not played by Hasselhoff; this was a cliffhanger intended to be explained in the next season; However the show did not fully catch on and the second season was not commissioned.
Most of the cars used towards the end of the 90s series were all Ford. And I'm guessing they followed the 1994 movie...and used another Ford Mustang.
