Transformers 3 Bumblebee Camaro spotted!

[slick rick]

Definitely Jay Leno V6 concept body/grille.

[Number 3]

I likes it A LOT.

Front end and splitter are very nice. Rear spoiler does not turn me away. I had one of the early CTF G8 GTs that had the high spoiler, kinda liked it. Not loved..........but liked.

[VR Code R6P]

I'm digging it. The openings on the rear fender are much better than fake stock gills. I like the front end as well, but would like it a lot more if the lower grill mimicked the upper, with bolder horizontal bars. I don't care about losing the fake mailslot, a plus IMO. Megan still looks good.

Anyone else notice that Bumblebee now has the Shark Fin antenna?

I'll buy that front fascia the second it's on the market! Assuming it's free. Otherwise I'll have to wait a little bit. I love it...the whole thing, but it doesn't look as mean as the last two did.

looks good, I'm a fan though not so much of the movies

Calm down everyone -

REMEMBER: any time we change a CAmaro or Corvette - 50% love it - 50% hate it - and 6 months later - 80% of those who hated it now love it. (and 1.2% go have a sex change) (.....OK - I made that last part up........)


I think you may be surprised when you see it in person.

One other thought: we need to continue to appeal to a younger audience......

I'm with you Scott... opinions change and they come and go. I think it looks good actually. And you're right, I was just reading the other day about how below 30-somethings are still not fully into the Camaro. Actually, can you get me that whole front grille assembly for my SS and paint it Imperial Blue to match? Please....? And I guess you could throw an LSA in there too, if you feel like it....

[SoTHavok]

i can digg it, looks sweet

I think GM is just using paramount to try things out on a pre-production camaro, same with the original 2007 movie and the concept. Also the possible front grill of the "z-28" and the 2009 movie. This might just be another test of different options. I do like the front end, however the stripes going on the roof, i am not a big fan, but the stripes on the hood and rear don't look that bad. Also the spoiler isn't that bad, but the sides do throw it off a bit for me.

[Brokinarrow]

I like it. The wing isn't THAT bad guys, seriously, they coulda made it a LOT more ricey. That one actually looks functional. The stripes are different, but either way, glad to see Bee finally got himself some Halos Love the lower facia, thing they should stick with the same mesh the lower grill has for the upper grill though. Or at least make both grills match Also, really like the look of the ... uh, i guess I'll call it 'gill replacement', looks pretty sharp.

Oh, and is just me, or does Megan Fox not seem to appreciate this car at all? She doesn't even look a lil bit excited...

I believe this is the first Bumble Bee created using an actual production Camaro. Could be wrong, I haven't followed the previous iterations too closely, apart from hearing that the original bumble bee was a Camaro body on a GTO chassis I believe?

[Spiv]

I don't mind many of the changes, except for the wing spoiler.

Everything else isn't too bad.

Also, the spoiler can be removed, and you can put on a retro one quite easily, so it wouldn't bother me too much.

It's weird that they are keeping GM wheels and the GM Autobot logo, but customizing color, grill, hood, and all the other stuff. Can't say for sure, but I'd guess there is more to be done to this bad boy.

Either way, not fully digging it. Change is ok, but not necessarily this.

[OUR72GTO]

Nice clean look without the slot.

63 Vette had split window......64 it was gone.
