I have a guy I work with that said the only reason the Camaro has become so popular is because it was shown over and over again in the Transformer movies. His opinion is if the car wasn't in the movie Camaro sales would have never overtaken Mustang sales and GM probably would have discontinued it after 2011.

Do you think the Transformer movies had a major influence on the success our Camaro's sales? Or do you think GM would have sold an equal amount of cars despite the movie? I had decided to order my SS before I even seen the movie so it had nothing to do with me buying one.

Did the movie have any influence for you to buy for any of you on the forum?
