KITT

Cool Graphics at iLLpic.comMy name is KITT(Knight Industries Two Thousand), I was designed by the late Wilton Knight, a brilliant but eccentric billionaire and founder of the "Foundation for Law and Government", (commonly shortened to "FLAG"), and its parent the Knight Foundation.
I was in fact the second vehicle built by Knight Industries with artificial intelligence. My predecessor was KARR (the Knight Automated Roving Robot). KARR was programmed for self-preservation, but this proved to be dangerous for the Foundation's interests. KARR was later deactivated and placed in storage while I was given to his new operator, Michael Knight. My Kitt Car In Action

I could also drive myself, but perhaps my most distinct and recognizable aspect was his front mounted scan bar which, among other things, allowed me to "see". My body panels were coated with an advanced "molecular bonded shell" armor coating which would resist conventional weapon fire as well as most artillery and explosive blasts although a strong direct hit by those attacks could cause severe damage.
Total production cost: $11,400,000 estimated in 1982 (this was my total construction cost when first built in 1982. The cost of subsequent equipment improvements and the installation of additional features since his activation have not been factored).
Power System - I am powered by the Knight Industries turbojet with modified afterburners and a computer controlled 8-speed turbodrive transmission. Specifications 0–60 mph in 2 seconds, standing to quarter mile 4.286 seconds. Electromagnetic hyper-vacuum disc brakes: 14 foot braking distance (70–0 mph).Me and Kitt Playing in the Snow
