The GM New Look was a transit bus used by the San Francisco Municipal Railway, or MUNI, in 1986. MUNi assigned specific coach numbers to these vehicles.

One of these buses was assigned to a route that had a bus stop on Columbus Avenue. It bore on its right side an advertising sign for the Cetacean Institute. Admiral James T. Kirk and Captain Spock attempted to board this bus, but were kicked off because they didn't have exact change.
