Presenting before us is a 1984 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am, adorned with the coveted Y84 Recaro Special Edition package, immortalized as television’s iconic “talking” Trans Am from the beloved series, “Knight Rider.”
In an era defined by mullets and burgeoning technological optimism, the show captivated audiences with its futuristic narrative, starring David Hasselhoff as Michael Knight and Pontiac Firebird as KITT, a sentient and suave crime-fighting partner.
This meticulously crafted replica mirrors the allure of KITT from its inaugural season, featuring a distinctive three-light front bumper setup.
A 2018 refinish in sleek black adorns its exterior, complemented by T-top panels, custom fascia with scanner-effect light bar, and a suite of modifications embodying its on-screen counterpart’s capabilities.
A 5.0-liter V8 engine located under the hood transfers 190 horsepower to the back wheels through a four-speed automatic gearbox. With its improved brakes, lowered suspension, and deployable gadgets that bring back memories of KITT’s armory, this Trans Am radiates nostalgia and performance at the same time.
Within its cabin, modern conveniences harmonize with retro charm, boasting a custom-molded dashboard, digital instrumentation, and entertainment system evoking KITT’s futuristic allure.
