For many kids, Knight Rider was the first show we programmed on our VCRs. It lasted four seasons and spawned several made-for-TV movies. There was also official show merchandise, but surprisingly no official tie-in with Pontiac. That's why when the Knight Rider Historians uncovered evidence of an official "Knight Rider" special edition Pontiac Trans Am, we took notice.
Joe Huth and AJ Palmgren are the lone crusaders who champion this cause in a dangerous world. The world of the Knight Rider. According to their YouTube channel, no official agreement existed between Pontiac and the show. Additionally, while the first season referenced KITT as a "black Trans Am," subsequent seasons made vague references to him as a "black t-top" or "black sports car," specifically avoiding any references to Pontiac or the Trans Am.
