If this is Knight Industries from the 80's(not current) I'll roll with them... I'd still beg for Lighting by George!

MI6. I can't wait to see what Q's cooked up for me! Besides, if I blow it up, I'm sure he'll have another one handy shortly!

I/m with Flaagan. I would like to have all the cool gizmos that Q puts together. Not to mention, you can use the car as a submarine. Oh...I also like the weapons.

James Bond had All of the Coolest Stuff!

Heck, Radio Flyer, you're like the James Bond of LED's and Innovative ideas!

With Knight Industries, I wouldn't want to have a debate with my car and have it talk back to me!

I've never heard of the other places!
