Though I admit I think using either the 1969 or a 3rd gen (which no one will convince me the new Camaro doesn't have as many 3rd gen hints as it does 1st) would have been even better than the 2nd to tie the looks together some.

just to touch up the subject...
it is all camaro...lol the new camaro is based off the 69 (tho its squared off edges are similar to the 3rd gens)
but as far as Bumblebee as a camaro in the movie, the developers wanted the (don't yell at me for saying this about a camaro) crappiest, POS, ugliest camaro ever made. the 76 with the rust spots, mismatched wheels, metal bumper, riveted-on non-functional hood cowl just make for the worst combo of things done to a camaro. at a point in the movie, Spike/Sam asks Bumblebee (since he can change his shape anyway) if he would pick an upgraded vehicle to transform into. (he only asks to help him pick up chicks. lol) at which point Bumblebee scans the new Camaro and takes on its sleek, sexy, form.
