On top of incorrect stripes and color, and having "special emblems" they didn't even add the front ground fx or paint the foglights' area black.
Real dissappointment. I guess this is just to appeal to the people who are ordering because of the movie...
Did you happen to see the first Transformers Movie?

And no offense, but did you happen to read thru this entire thread?

fbod,

Do you happen to have any new pics of Thor with his latest fitments? I apologize if you've posted them previously, I may have missed them. I did look at the photos released from GM, but I'd be interested to see them in the "real world."

Would have been more unique if they would have put the full rally stripe on the hood


notice I didn't call it a 'bumblebee' stripe....because this is what a bumblebee stripe looks like:

You would be welcomed with open arms at the San Diego Comic Book Convention (7/23/09),if you drove your "Transformer Car" there...

Looks like 90 % can't read or can't understand what they read.

Angry

totally agree - what a piece of crap

Any tool who would pay 1000clams to put that infantile logo on the deck of their car - really makes me howl!

This is what happens when you hand over a project to some marketing geek ( under cost control decrees ) as a weekend home work assignment.

They've cheapened the Camaro brand by doing this kaack

Only knobs? Is that in reference to a door knob?

for $1000 it should look at least like the bumblebee in the 1st movie, the proper color and stripes. it doesnt need the hood and front end, just color/stripes and i wouldnt complain

Wow, what's with all the hate? I found this site because I was looking for details on the transformers edition camaro, and I think GM did a good job on it.

No, it doesn't look exactly like Bumblebee, but it's close enough for the average person to recognize it. I like that GM kept it subtle, and I guarantee that only comic con geeks will complain that it's not an exact replica - everyone else that can recognize the decals will think that it's pretty sweet.

For those complaining about the price, the stripes alone are ~$500 as an option. I wonder how many of the haters here are either A) too old to like Transformers, B) too young to like Transformers, or C) pissed that they can't order one. I understand that it's not for everybody, but I don't think outright hatred is warranted.

If you don't like it, get something else, but this package is what got me interested in the new camaro to begin with. Now I've got to figure out which I like more: a Transformers edition or IOM with IO interior and black hockey stripes.

it's a free country man - don't confuse hate with strong opinions - that's what these boards are all about.

if cheap decals from hasbro toys are yer thing - spare us the tears and DO IT !
