the original TransAm of the 80's TV show was pretty amazing! Without there being an adequate NEW TRansAm the Shelby GT500 KR (Knight Rider or KIng of the road????) Is a GREAT choice...try driving one...even a stock one (which I was lucky enough to get to do)..and you'll see... Jerks are just pissed they didn't pick YOUR favorite car! You mean NBC doesn't want KITT to have FOUR doors like a Charger?? what kind of sports car has four doors?? My little SLOW V6 Stang looks cooler than that.. SHELBY!
Ford haters! This car STOCK has 540 hp and 510 ft. lbs of trq. And that's conservatively rated and without some customizing.... a new tune and some minor "Beefing" (i.e. nitrous) this car can produce 600-900 to the wheels.... The design is classic...best on the road..larde enough to be fitted with weapons, extras whatever "KITT" might need... Look at what's happening... just like in the '60's...Charger, CHallenger, Camaro...all trying to produce cars that look like Mustangs!!
GOOD for you,I'm not saying the stang is a bad car it is cool for some people but its not the car a billionare which the tv show is set up with they need a super car with alota technology in it.The car they show looks like a car from a puff daddy concert!I'm just saying if they have the mustang then they might as well have justin timberlake as michal.
I know what a nice car is,and the mustange isnt a bad car its just way over rated.This show is a ford comercial.If a super high performance car were picked to be a super car the stang would be the last I would pick,its non areodynamic and cant handle.There are way better cars!
Why not use a performance handling supercar,why not the new challenger or camaro, unless michael is going to be gay then the stang will fit,but by the second week we'll see rust on it.I hope they get a differnt car then i'll watch!
Then its worth the wait to have a cool car instead of the rustang,they could use the new viper or vette,both cars way outperform the stang on all levels.You got to think if theres a guy with millions to make a car with a high tech computer and gagets why would he pick a car that couldnt handle or move,why the mustang?
because the mustang is the most selling mid size car in america. and this show if for americans, ntm the mustang is a legend and to wait another year or so wouldnt be so much cuz i doubt the new camaro is better than the King of the Road Shelby Mustang.
So use it cuz alota school teachers and women own them? Common there were a ton of neons and cavaliers sold they are not using those cars.Its not the top muscle car that the US had,the new shellby cant handle or compete against a real car even 4banger imports beat the stang.They used the camaro for transformers why not KR.
ok kid i have never seen any teachers drive stangs, maybe a few chicks with v6 but the KR stang is a v8 incase ur to stupid to know that.Second, i never said it was "the best" everyone knows the Z06 is but it is the best out of the firebird, camaor, and mustang wich is why they used it.Third, the camaro in transformers isnt a camaro moron its a gto with the body (made by saleen) of new camaro.Everyone knows that quit dreaming and wake up.
And u obviously dont know what a shelby KING OF THE ROAD. It is a super car and can handle a 4 banger in the track and drag strip.Maybe u outta know ur shit before u open ur ignorant mouth.And it only cost around 50 grand.
Listen little boy,go to ford mustang shelby gt vs wrx sti and see how bad the rustang got beat. And I'm sorry the mustang cant handle compared to the new viper or vette and its ass ugly.If you were old enough to watch the show you would know that KITT was a super high tech car.I hait hurt you feelings but the stang is nooo"King of the road" its more of a jester! lol
lol u see one race on u tube and its a shelby gt not the KR and u think it is? man how retarded r u?And like i said the old show was a trans am so since there are no trans am or camaro the mustang is the other pony car ( get that thrugh ur head) they dont want a vette or viper cuase its not a pony car.And the KR was king of thr road when it came out not now its just a remake of the real Kr jsut like the boss 429.Get ur facts strait.
And theres plenty of vids of the gt500 beating the c6 z06 in a drag but u dont see me saying the vette sucks compared to the stang.And in my favs theres a stang running 6.9 seconds in 1/4 mile show me a wrx doing that.
The king has has always been the hemi,which still run in top fuel to this day.And I dont think thats 6.9 factory.The sti does 12-13 factory without mods and thats a 4banger. They dont need to have a pony car thats big money from ford talking dumbass they can use any car.I'm just saying use a super car that can handle and look good the rustang dont!Get a car that kicks ass not somthing that comes from an ass.
so what the camaro ss does worse than a stock cobnra so i dont know what ur bitching about.And the KR bakc in the 60s was the king of the raod at the time.Look it up it handled the vette,camaro,and firebird. i dont remember hearing of a hemi maybe cuz they sucked.And moron they WANT A PONY CAR not any car but a PONY CAR since there is no maro or bird the stang is left fuck get over it.
My main point, what you seem to ignore, for the movie they need a car thats futuristic that can handle and chase and get away from bad guys not sit dead along side the road or in the shop all the time(which fords are known for)mustangs are not known for handling and how can you have a futuristic car that every rich school girl drives.
dont see alot girls driving mustangs (espically KRs) here and plenty of chicks drive firebirds and camaros so get off ur rag about chick drivers.Second, i see ur point on the mustang not being the best car but u asked why their using it and i gave u an answer.And again the KR is good for handleing its not a base shelby gt500 or mustang.But ur obviously a brand loyal dude (who doesnt like ford)so do as u wish i grew outta that stage back in jr. high, either way i know what i know.
The new 2008 viper would smoke that sad car,even the 2009 vette would be so sweet instead, they let ford buy them making this a sad try at the original knight rider,why ruin a great show with big money. I hope they dont remake the dukes of hazard the rustang couldnt fill the generals shoes dork!
I'm really not impressed with the whole idea of this "new" Knight Rider. What audience are they trying to get? The people that know Knight Rider already hate it...
The scanners too wide and doesnt blend into the car. KITT should look more sleek, stealthy, understated yet powerful. I think the Corvette Z06 should have been the car. Ahhhh TOO LATE!!
I'm glad they changed Bee; there is no way that scene in Transformers could've been done with a Bug without reminding everyone over fifteen of HERBIE, and by extension, Lindsay Lohan. Do you want to look at Transformers and think of "celebutantes"? Huh? Do ya, punk?
They sorta combined G1 bumblebee and the later character "Hotshot".. I dont mind.. it wasnt bumblebee but it wasnt bad. somethings cant be updated well without redesign. TF's would have been crap if it were live action blocky robots
Im a huge gearhead and usually believe its whats UNDER the hood that counts, but there's something just asthetically...WRONG, about the new Mustang, GT500 or not...it just looks like a damn Hotwheel when you put it next to the classic stangs. Just MHO, though.
morphing into battle mode?? sounds like they are just remaking VIPER with the Knight Rider Theme.. the only reason i'll watch is to drool over the car. it's going to suck otherwise
can sum1 explain why the "attack" Kitt has Black rims while the "regular" Kitt has Chrome Rims cuz im kinda lost didnt the original kitt have Black Rims in General
_this show is "ASS MILK" and so is the production staff! ............who the fu[k you SOCK MONKEYS try to fool????? you honestly think the U.S. public is stupid
That's a shame. Especially considering how much negative response the Ford has received so far. You'd think the producers of the show, and the exec's at GM, would be kicking themselves about now.
They probably should have used a 2002 Trans Am, or 1990s model to be the new K.I.T.T., but they didn't; the odds are they'll do that before Pontiac makes any more third-gens.
