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.

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...

This is not possible, but Frank Booth (Dennis Hopper) from Blue Velvet (1986).

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