I have a renewed excitement about the camaro, not because of the movie (the car is flat out cool), but the exposure this film brought to the car has really catapulted this car into to conscience of everyone is astonishing. So my question, do you think the Camaro enthusists are fans of Transformers because of the Camaro having such a large presence in the franchise or are there many Camaro fans who also happen to be die hard transformer fans too? I hear so many people wanting the rally yellow just to make it look like Bumblebee. Is it a coincidence or what do you think?

For me, it's a coincidence. I was a Transformers nut as a kid in the 80s, and I've loved the new Camaro since they first debuted the concept car. The Camaro made me enjoy the Transformers movie more, but equally important were the abundance of slow-motion explosions, Shia Lebouf's fun improvisation, and Megan Fox's hotness.

Here's one that was in a car show in Japan this past weekend...

not bad, it would probably look better if a flatter clear coat was sprayed on the black that is trying to mimic the bumble fascia.

Bell040 · 06-22-2009, 04:34 PM

I love how they blacked out the bottom-center nose piece in the fascia....

someone needs to try the same thing with a different color car.... say SIM or CGM???

mondain · 06-22-2009, 04:37 PM

Nice. I like how they skipped the factory stripes and went for a real bumblebee stripe kit, a-la vinylgraphics.net....which is exactly what I am doing

Ctrain24 · 06-22-2009, 04:54 PM

They should've banned this guy

GM better add some shifts to the plant if their that serious over in china about the car!
They need to start exporting the car if production is ramped up before all this interest dies out.

It looks like it's just painted with black accents. Could be done on any color but black.

That's sweet! I wish I could have been a part :/ I only would have limited it to chevy/GM cars. It's sort of disappointing to see the toyotas, etc in there...

I'm going to China next year for spring break... Maybe I'll help organize this

Bumblebee stripes/paint do not belong on anything with a toyota badge.

Fandango · 06-22-2009, 06:56 PM

I saw a Yellow SS with black rally striped today and I sware they look better in person. I want that scheme so bad. I'm not a Transformers honk, I just love that look. And now that is looks like the Z/28 might be anounced in a year, I'm looking forward to making a Bumblebee clone.
