In the 80s David Hasselhoff was the coolest man alive. And he wore eyeliner. What made him so cool. No kiddies, it wasnt the Baywatch babes, that was much later. David Hasselhoff was Michael Knight. And he had the coolest car in existance. A TransAm. And it talked. God that was awesome.

Drive.com.au Says:

Restored to its debut-season glory, the modified black 1982 Pontiac Trans Am is being offered at $US149,995 at a Dublin auto dealership.

Johnny "Vette" Verhoek of Kassabian Motors has had the car, officially called Knight Industries Two Thousand, on display for about a month.

It is one of four documented "camera cars" used for close-up shots and scenes where David Hasselhoff, who played Michael Knight in the series, was behind the wheel.

Although it cannot achieve the 300 mph speeds that KITT reached, soar 50 feet in the air or throw smoke bombs, key features of the star car are intact.

Perhaps most important, the red scanner light on the nose glows and makes a humming noise.

The car has two working video screens on the dashboard, and the cockpit features buttons that light up in green, yellow and red: ski mode, rocket boost, micro jam, silent mode, oil slick and eject.

Now who wouldnt want their very own KITT. This was the COOLEST car in the 80s. Everyone wished they could have a talking car. If only it were the year 2000 when everyone would... oops.

What other legendary TV Vehicles would you want to own?

You know what car would be awesome to have... the car from The Wraith with charlie sheen. Thank movie rocked!

The Wraith was a concept car that was developed into the Dodge Stealth. Stealth was still a cool car, but not as cool as the Wraith was. And yes, I remember that movie vividly.

i got a theory, that kitt was actually the first cylon!!!

"i got a theory, that kitt was actually the first cylon!!!"

Well both shows were from Glen A. Larson

And the Kitt is a cylon thing was a gag used months ago on PVPOnline. A very popular webcomic.

You can even get a tshirt at Think Geek

i did not know that!

Someone remember about "Hardcastle and McCormick" in 1983 ?
I love that car, the "Cody Coyote" driven by McCormick, I always want to have one like this.
