I watched 5 mins 'in medias res' and thought the acting was horrible, then I wandered off to my room.

I had a power outtage so I missed it. But from what I hear I didn't miss much and sounds like It woulda been a mistake for GM if they backed it. Sounds quite abit like that old Viper tv show.

Sadly, I think the Viper TV show was better. Knight Rider apparently tried to rely on nice cars and pretty women instead of investing money on good writers and actors.

Then again, if they waited on the writers strike it wouldn't have aired, but might have been saved.

Hey, I'm a Mustang fan too. Always have been, always will be. I would have bought a V6 Mustang instead of my Grand Prix, but the snake sold the car out from under me. But KITT still isn't a Mustang. It's a completely different car. It's like saying the Grand Prix and Grand Am are the same car. Sure they're similar, but they aren't the same car.

Oh, and btw...the fact that the FBI agent was a lesbian? COMPLETELY unnecessary.

The movie was just stupid...hopefully they won't keep making the GT500 look bad by making a series out of it.

It's not a Mustang Shelby GT500...the word Mustang isn't anywhere in the car's name.

The GT500 is made by SVT, not regular Ford. It's got a completely different engine, different suspension, different interior, similar but definitely different body...not to mention it weighs a hell of a lot more.

The car doesn't have horse anywhere on it, just a snake. Because it's not a Mustang. Like I said, it's like comparing the Grand Am and Grand Prix.

Try again Ace.

The Shelby is a Mustang. Plane and simple. Only difference is a GT is sent on to another plant for modifications and upgrades. Nothing like a GP compared to a GA. More like a stock Corvette compared to a Callaway or Ligenfelter modded Vette.

Even though the GT500 is a Mustang, Ford doesn't market it as one. It isn't listed at your link and they never combine the Mustang and Shelby names together anywhere. The only Mustang appears as a logo at the top, but nowhere in print.

Here is the link to the GT500: http://www.svt.ford.com/

If you click on the models on the top Both the coupe and vert are listed amongst the models. Oh and if you click on either the coupe or vert and then open the PDF it has Mustang all over it. I'd link it but Ford won't let me.

An SRT4 is a neon
A Z28 is a Camaro
A Trans Am is a Firebird
A GT500 is a Mustang
A 1970 GTO is a Tempest
Etc, etc, etc...

It is all Ford to me. Ford sucks, always has, and always will. Just thought I would throw my two cents in.
