If you spent your youth in the 80′s (like me), you’ll remember cheap (but good) TV shows like A-Team, McGyver and of course, Knight Rider. The car, named K.I.T.T. (short for Knight Industries Two Thousand) is back again on the screen.

Good friend, Mrs. Frost posts about it in her blog, Ambushed Thoughts.

Instead of the old Trans-Am, the new KITT is now a Shelby GT500KR Mustang. Hmmm… sounds like a marketing deal cooking, eh? More like a Transformers mega-deal, too.

Anyways, check out the new KITT!

More details about the show after the jump

Quoted from Jalopink.com

NBC’s iconic 1980s television classic that became a runaway success, comes roaring back to life on the network with an updated sequel that will air as a two-hour movie event on Sunday, February 17 (9-11 p.m. ET) — NBC unveiled the new customized KITT Ford Mustang to be featured in the series in a press event held at NBC’s Burbank Studios today. The movie stars Justin Bruening (“Cold Case,” “All My Children”), Deanna Russo (“NCIS,” “The Young and the Restless”), Sydney Tamiia Poitier (“Veronica Mars,” “Grindhouse”) and Bruce Davison (“Breach,” “Close to Home”). In addition, David Hasselhoff (NBC’s “America’s Got Talent”) — who starred in the popular lead role as Michael Knight for four seasons during the original series — returns as the same character in a special guest-star appearance.
