Quick question for those who care…

What was the best TV show that starred a car or it was at least one of the main features of the show?

Examples of the kind of shows I am talking about would be,
Knight Rider, Viper, Route 66, Bandit, etc.

The A Team starred a car? I mean it was certainly the best "we expend a LOT of bullets and a LOT of explosives and never actually *hurt* anyone" show.

Those things didn't star in the show, though. *shrug* Sure, you recognize BA's van, but it wasn't a star by any means. Certainly not in the same vein as The General or KITT. Or even "My Mother the Car." That was a mildly funny show, though I'm barely old enough to remember catching a few episodes in reruns.

How bout the car from Automan?

I know it was an animated show, but this one would fit the bill I think.

I know that KITT was already mentioned, but we need a picture...
