Erm, I don't think time travel was among KITT's many powers (the show ended in '86). It's an '83-'84 (as season three would've premiered in the fall of '84, right?)

No, the last year for the Fox-body Thunderbird was '88. In '89, the next generation (the MN12 platform) came out.

This one is 1984/85 Ford Thunderbird Fila trim due to absence of extra headlights under the bumper and wider wheel tread.

"Knight of the Drones"--the 3rd season 2-hour premiere. Bonnie was back, and Michael & KITT were up against some bad, robotic/remote control red Ford Thunderbirds...awesome and one of my favorite episodes! :king:

This was the fall of 1984...and from the way these T-Birds are showcased throughout the episode I would assume Ford had made a deal with "Knight Rider" and NBC to "advertise" their brand new models. So, this was either a current 1984...or the brand new 1985 model Thunderbird! A brand new silver Mercury Cougar was also showcased in this episode--the bad guy who programmed the "evil" Thunderbirds drove it.

They weren't 1985 models. The new round dash debuted for 1985. These cars had the boxy fairmount dash which makes them 1983/1984 models. It also appears the steering wheel which was borrowed from the crown victoria may have been 1983 only. Here's a pic of an 83 tbird dash and wheel which is the same as the drones had.

Btw, the bad guys car was a lincoln mark vii, not a cougar.
