Knight Rider [Pilot; a.k.a. Knight of the Phoenix] (2) - S1-E2
Revealing mistake: During the Comtron Demolition Derby after Buddy sprays oil, Michael asks him not to push another button. Buddy decides to push the next button for Smoke Screen. The license plate is mirrored THGINK (instead of KNIGHT) before the smoke blows.

Revealing mistake: After KITT has been taken by the crooks, KITT auto cruises. Watch the spin circle showoff in slow motion. KITT is spraying gasoline out of his side tank all over the road as he's spinning circles.

Revealing mistake: When the 2 crooks take KITT, when Michael's on the phone, KITT takes over and the driver keeps saying he's not doing anything and isn't touching the wheel. When KITT is doing donuts, you see the driver's hands on the wheel, and he's the one doing the driving.
Answer: I would say that unless there's visual evidence it was another K.I.T.T. car, as in you could see the bar scanner or cut steering wheel, people on here would correct the mistake by saying more than one 1982 Pontiac Firebird Trans-Am was sold and there's no reason it's meant to be a random car.
