Few Questions About The "Bumblebee Camaro"

I have read a few articles about the release of the car and some that already have a "Transformers" Camaro, which looks nothing like the movie car,
When GM does release this Bumblebee Inspired Camaro, is it even going to resemble the one used in the movie?
Like yellow stitched seats, Actual Bumblebee paint-not Rally Yellow, Transformers badging and stuff?

I would really love to have one of these cars when they are released.

Anyone know of any prices yet?

Will it be a V6 or V8? 1SS or 2SS? LT?

Thanks guys.

nothing official now..it would be hard to add another paint color right now during production..I would imagine we may see something for Transformers 3 if there is one..but I think it's to late now

I dont understand why GM can't just number the car to like, 10k. And just paint those cars the official Bumblebee color.
It makes more sense, to me.

One big reason is the paint is very expensive to do. There is a big thread the car is available to order. All you get is basically emblems, you can choose whether you want a V6 or V8, but its def rally yellow, short black stripes and basically body and wheel emblems. I think they missed the boat as I have posted many times. I would of gladly paid extra for the hood/bodykit even if it was still rally yellow and I would of even paid extra if they offered the real color as a decent price. But as of right now I will just stick with my normal rally yellow 2SS/RS I have on order and be done with it.

I know man

The fascia is so sick on the Bublebee car, so is the hood. I really hope they make the car just like the one in the movie

Also, I hate to do this...But its actually "Its time to kick ass and chew bubblegum, and Im all out of gum".....Duke Nukem...lol

So do you htink GM would release the Fascia or the Hood?

Or maybe start making the 2012 Camaro's with the BB paint? (If T3 comes out)

My guess hood and fascia will be out this year or next via aftermarket. I doubt gm will ever offer the paint. These are just my personal opinions.
