The whole problem with the popularity of viral marketing stunts is the fact that nobody knows whether they should act on a crime (ie, report it) or simply assume it's marketing.

Besides, Knight Rider sucked back then, and it's going to suck now.]]>

I just checked on another aspect and it seems this one only comes in a 6-speed manual...and has a GPS unit :-/ --I don't know how those work but I suspect they could track the car.  Driving stick is probably not exactly a rare skill, but I'd wager the chances are slim some bum off the street could just jump into this car and get a split-second feel for the clutch--and drive it so well down the road.]]>

People are now betting on whether the car will be returned on Wednesday.

Have to agree though this is just a fake and sad stunt for a crap show!]]>

Yup, the part that is very questionable for me is that she leaves it in the middle of the road at an angle so that nice pics can be taken of it and everyone has a good perspective of it.  If they had put it closer to the lineup the "carjacker" has a farther distance to run and being closer to the lineup risks some hero attempting to take him down.

But then again it is a woman driver--do you see how they park in the malls?]]>

I was there - it was clearly a publicity stunt.  Didn't anybody else find it ODD that it was driven on a flat-bed from across the street?  Why didn't they just drive it over?  Then she parks it on a diagonal in the middle of the road, while a cop holds the traffic at bay?  The whole thing was so fake.]]>

I'm getting sick of telling people this.. and everyone is so quick to jump on the 'stunt' wagon these days. Guy gets shot on 401 and pushed out of car... STUNT right? shit happens, specially in toronto :| 

Anyways, I don't think it was a fake and here is why.
I was going for lunch (I work on Front street) andsaw the E!tent. Being the greedy bugger I am, I thought DING! Free merchandise

Anyways, they just had some cards and wanted me to wait to get my picture taken with.. KITT :| la di da. Anyways, not gonna waste my 1 hour lunch waiting for a damn car. So I walk back and notice that one of the offduty cops is a former classmate. I asked him why they're closing both sides of the street, since Front is always so damn busy. 
Apprently they were going to close traffic just a few min, during which the car would do burn-outs and loop around the median, which ends at Bay street, then come back around, in the westbound lane, and end up in front of the E! tent again. Hence the pylons and fences!
I was too far to see it getting jacked (already at Bay), but my cop friend thought it was part of the gig, except the car didn't turn back at BAY!!! around the median.. but just kept going. So the cops weren't in on it.

Or they wouln't allow it to scream past Bay, since there were no barriers and it was lunch time and everyone jaywalking downtown.

I guess the promo company messed up, or their driver went bananas and took the car, or it was an actual theft. hm Global must not be commenting since they're trying to figure out what happened internally or they're embarrassed to admit it, and are going with the flow.

hm the original KITT must be rolling in its grav.. em I mean scrapyard.]]>

Who cares? Kit's past his prime now anyways.

Resuscitating the show with a crappy Ford Mustang just doesn't do it for me. The Pontiac Trans Am at least looked cool in the early '80s. They could at least have found a <a href="http://www.dieselstation.com/uploader/files/853_6adhk/koenigsegg-exotic-car-pictures.jpg" target="_blank">cooler looking car</a>. Something like the Audi R8 or even the Dodge Viper.]]>

You're all wrong. No one stole the car.  KITT drove himself away.  He's soooo ashamed of his crappy new show that he need to get some "me" time.]]>

@Ben: Yeesh... Glamourizing cars? So what? You should be more concerned with the massive use and discarding of material (like wood and plastic) production companies do.

Total viral publicity stunt:

1. They wouldn't leave a vehicle like that idling and unmanned
2. Everyone is behind a barrier except that guy?
3. They closed down all of Front St by Union station, if it wasn't planned, only half of it would be closed
4. Bad acting

Worse video ever. Even for a cell phone.

I'm getting to hate all this viral crap more and more.]]>
