    2010 Camaro TRANSFORMERS Special Edition announced - MotorAuthority - Car news, reviews, spy shots

    Not to be a stickler to detail but the last time I checked, Bumblebee was a Beetle. *cough* Generation 1 *cough*

    azk, many of those orders are from pre-orders, this month and next month will be the true test. This will hold the truth of it all.

    'The Camaro's exterior design manager, Australian Peter Hughes, said he wanted the vehicle to be distinctly Camaro: "We're incredibly proud of how faithful the production version is to the original concept.'

    I suppose Aussies designed it for us - then said "oh that looks like S**t, just Give it to the yanks"

    The one in transformers 2 is even more over the top, with different wheels and a bird eater.

    Peter hughes wanted it to be distinctly camaro because GM told him it had to look EXACTLY like a piece of concept art they sent him or they wouldnt accept it. He wasnt allowed to deviate from the concept. So no, it was never designed for australians.

    He's incredibly proud because the way the concept art was drawn, it was a feat of engineering to get the chassis to work right.

    I like it, regardless of the transformer stickers. Looks nice in yellow. I'd certainly have one in my driveway.

    I'm sorry, but its not a transformers edition unless it can actually tranform into a robot.. and I didnt see one picture of it doing that!
