1982 Firebird restored to look exactly like Knightrider

Check out this trans am on Ebay.

The interior has been done exactly like the 4th season car, INCLUDING the steering wheel.

I just think it's a little crazy is all. I've never seen a user modified trans am to look like Knight Rider. I don't necessarily think it's "cool".

I don't think the original K.I.T.T. had leather. I've seen these before at cruise ins... It's a niche.

the KITT cars NEVER had leather interiors they were standard PMD (pontiac motor division) cloth seats that were only on the very early 3rd gen F cars and some grand prix coupes the ones on the KITT cars were in a color called Camel Tan. I knew a guy in florida who was restoring one of the 'TV' used cars and had to special order the fabric used on those cars to restore the door panels and seats.

now you know, and knowing is half the battle:

That's cool, but not 25K cool. KITT never had leather. The interior of this car looks to glossy too. If I were rich I'd by KITT just for the hell of it and drop in an LS3.

Um...directly from that link...that doesn't even look remotely like leather. The only thing that looks like leather is the center console arm rest. And even that looks more like vinyl, than leather...
