K.I.T.T. exists in the ttrpg version of Cyberpunk. It’s called Night Rider. It has a daemon installed that drives it and stays connected to the driver. I want that added more than anything else.
The only problem is CDPR getting the rights to use the Trans Am from Pontiac, as well as risk a potential lawsuit with CBS over making something so similar to their IP. Although, that may be just the thing to get CBS to finally pull the trigger on the revival series that have been talked about, but only *ever* talked about.
I drive one, btw. Not just a Trans Am. My friend does a *lot* of different kinds of things, but one of the coolest is he makes movie/TV car replicas, and takes his own to shows/cons. His main, every day car is a K.I.T.T. replica, with some original parts installed, and everything else popped from the molds that made the originals. He owns the molds too.
Anyways, I drive K.I.T.T., the A-Team van, and the Mystery Machine at any given time. It depends on what he’s working on at the moment lol. He’s also got the Robocop cruiser, but that turned out to be a lemon with a cracked something or other in the frame, so that gets trailered to events. And he’s working on Ecto-1. He’s had a lot of setbacks, though, including a crackhead backing their car into it… in his own driveway….. repeatedly……. within a matter of minutes………
But yeah, picking my kid up from school has made us the Cool Parents ™

NITT – Nightcorp Industries Two Thousand
NISS – Nightcorp Industries Seventy Seven
If Nightcorp (and quite frankly any corp in NC) wasn’t so shady it would have been a great stand in for the Foundation For Law And Government if Richard Night was alive.

It’s also pretty cool that Michael Long and V “died” to a headshot.
I did occasionally roleplay my V as Vincent Night, even had an outfit for it. Black Tech gogs, Black Pozar jacket, red netrunning suit, black leather pants and Black exo Jacks. Couple that with either the Murkmobile, Type 66 Cthulhu or Blacked out Turbo R V Tech and I was dressed for anything.

When I was a kid, Camaros/Trans Am/Firebirds looked futuristic…now they look dated AF. This would not fit into cyberpunk.
Not all cars from the 80s are like that. But this one is. Lamborghinis still look modern and SciFi.

AI car sure. But I’d rather have one of the concepts. IRL cars stick out like a sore thumb in the game world.

I guess Delamaine is our version of that!
