Mustang is the new F-body...

That's a quote I found here:

What the heck is up with that quote?

It makes sense, the F-body is not around anymore and when it does come back I have a feeling it will no longer offer the cheap speed ticket that it has in the past

2 things ... Why does it still have the Cobra emblem in front , and why does it have to have the big riced wing on back ???

marketing...and marketing...

they sold out to ford and shelby and they have to promote it. and they have to win over the F&F and tuner group.

kinda like the ws6 and hawk?

**eddielb** · 12-14-2007, 09:13 AM

the wing on the ws6 and hawk are nowhere near as big as that one

it looks badass... but it's no Kitt... that sux wish they had at least used the vette

What's a WS-6 got to do with a ricer wing? It's the same wing as the standard ones from Pontiac...Formula or Formy WS-6 was the same low wing, T/A or T/A WS-6 had the same up-level wing. The Firehawk had two optional wings through the years, but nothing too ricer'd.

Thing about Knight Rider was when it first came out KITT had a futurist look to it ... this car looks like any other Shelby you might see ... Looks like a ROLEX GT car someone is driving on the street . I doubt the series last a whole season ...

Ohh , that means its going to suck even more than I thought

**35thAnniZ28** · 12-14-2007, 12:06 PM

That's right, everyone's favorite talking car (no, not spelled K-A-R-R) will be played by a black-with-gray-stripes 550 HP Ford Shelby GT500KR Mustang in the new Knight Rider TV show.

....the almighty Firebird was too good for that piece of shit drunk hasslehoff...so they went ahead and replaced kitt with something similar to shit..a boring cobra..wow

**third_shift|studios** · 12-14-2007, 12:10 PM

they should have chosen a retro mustang shelby, and refitted the thing to fit modernism...that would have been a little better. more like a cop taking the law into his own hands and using his generations-old bad ass car. NOt some off-the-lot gizmo

**Blitzed** · 12-14-2007, 02:18 PM

They fucked this all up..... How come producers ect always fuck up the simple things?

**Sarge** · 12-14-2007, 03:00 PM

Gay. POS. Fagmobile. Does it come with a bag to put over your head while you drive it?

**Silver Streak** · 12-14-2007, 03:22 PM

YEARS ago.. it was going to be a movie.. but I guess he couldn't get a studio that would allow KITT to talk!?!?

Then a series.. now a made for TV movie.. with a damn RUSTANG..

I'm disappointed..

TAKE IT BACK!!!!

**35thAnniZ28** · 12-14-2007, 11:04 PM

hey 310..i don't dislike the ford mustang vehicles...just the fact that they thought the cobra was going to be a better replacement..they way i think of it is they knew people were going to be dissapointed by the removal, so they got something much much better(in their point of view)...coulda chose something better i guess..but all in all..there is ALWAYS going to be that guy that hates this or hates that
