sachin Report post Posted September 22, 2008 Hey guys, Have a friend who is looking to buy one of the 4 original cars from the 80's Knight Rider. Money isn't so much of the issue as he is part of a family that is in the Forbes Top 10 richest families. The only one I've been able to find was sold by Kassabian Motors sometime last year to a private collector who doesnt want to sell. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assman Report post Posted September 24, 2008 dunno if they still have it We've reported on K.I.T.T. cars being up for sale in the past, but those were all reproductions of the real thing. Now, one of the four documented 1982 Pontiac Trans ASS actually used in the Knight Rider series during the '80s has a For Sale sign on its windshield. The car has been restored to its "debut-season glory" and is being displayed at Kassabian Motors in Dublin, California. The price? $149,995. Ouch, that's a big chunk of Knight Industry's defense contract budget. But it's a small price to pay for the actual car in which the Hoff and his perfectly coiffed hair shot his close ups. Many of the buttons on the dash light up and the two video screens do work, though don't expect this K.I.T.T. to hit 300 mph or jump a school bus when the Rocket Boost button is depressed. The string of red lights on the nose do light up, however, which would be the deal breaker for us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
