Yeah, the cloaking thing is a bit over the top - it spoilt that previous Bond movie for me. And I never liked Viper at all.

Why not just upgrade the old KITT?

I guess we won't be hearing the old KITT's voice anymore. The dude that did the voice for KITT has died years ago.

They should have made it a Bugatti or an Askari. Not a Mustang :( They must have a cheap ass budget.

because its lame, when the Viper did it (in that show Viper..my teenage heart died a little), when bonds Aston Martin went invisible, I vomited some popcorn into my er..other popcorn...

Its just lame...

That was seriously the crappiest Bond ever, and yes I am familiar with Moonraker. From the invisibule cars to the disintegrating aeroplane, far too much poor CGI.

Nanotech camoflage? Of course its gonna cloak! FAIL! :D
perhaps I can pay someone to edit out all the cloaking bits...
You know what, theyre probably going to cast some lame ass actor who was in a bunch of teen box office hits I could care less about...then theres the nanosuck cloaking..I dunno..not worth it
I have better things to do with my torrent+data

As an aside, I applied for a grant from the well-known (in journalism) Knight Foundation, run by the Knight family of Knight-Ridder fame (own a large number of US newspapers). I was surprised to find that http://www.knight-foundation.com/ was not their website. :D
