Several new ones announced lately;

The ones I want: Irate Long Island Housewife, Flo "Hush my Grits!" or John Wayne.

What do you want? Louis

I understand there is already a Homer Simpson.

How 'bout Marvin the Martian?

I want something that sounds completely robotic and non-human. Like Siri.

The guy who voiced KITT in Knight Rider was available (if not still...I'm too lazy to look it up).

I think a Joe Redifer voice would be good. It would say "Take the next left, asshole." [Big Grin]

I think Joe's GPS would be polite until you miss a turn.

Majel Barrett's "Star Trek" voice ...

How about the Cylon voice from the original Battlestar Galactica?

Not sure if this is one already but HAL from 2001: A Space Odyssey would great.

"Take a right turn Dave or I may cut off your oxygen supply", in the nice soothing voice. [Smile]

My favorite that I've heard so far was a somewhat insulting John Cleese (in a car in England at that).

I'd love a KITT voice, or maybe HAL 9000...

Joe Pesci. In any of his roles...

This is not possible, but Frank Booth (Dennis Hopper) from Blue Velvet (1986).
"You missed your turn, neighbor. Now I'll have to recalculate. Listen to Candy-colored Clown." *In Dreams, by Roy Orbison, plays*

Apparently there's one around somewhere that does remark when you miss a turn. Things like "Miss our morning coffee, did we?"

Foghorn Leghorn: "I say, boy, Ah is a CHICKENHAWK!" Louis
