Yeah the movie one wasnt so beefy, it was more sleek and refined

IMO I think GM did a terrible job on this spoiler it just looks too big

... but to all their own

I like the new one a lot... like the spoiler, and the graphics work.

is it worth the price?? I dont think so, but it is pretty cool.

GEEo · 08-26-2011, 12:28 PM

Adam's a great guy!!

Some of you may remember he was at the last Camaro5Fest in Chandler, AZ.

And this latest iteration of Bumblebee is my favorite, by far!!

Loving the CF-patterned stripes!

What a HUGE dissapointment!.........Front fender is off, wheels are not even the same, spoiler looks totally different, hood looks bad, paint could have been made darker even if it wasnt "metalic" just a darker shade.....how hard is that?!

Front Fender is production, TF3 was not. To make it so would require impact testing among other things.

Wheels - optional 21" just like TF3

Spoiler - no idea...but I'd guess the movie piece is all for show and won't stand up to regular duty.

Hood - eye of the beholder?

Paint - the story of paint is a long one. In short - the true BB paint is impossible from the factory, and a darker color would require difficult plant adjustments.

Dare I pun? These decisions have more than meets the eye...

I actually like the hood and the spoiler is sweet. Just takes some getting use to.

It was obviously a real treat for me to have the first production Transformers 3 Camaro debuted at the GM Employee car show the Wednesday before the dream cruise. I was stoked!!!

A special thanks to John Fitzpatrick for making it happen!!!!

We had just finished up the first builds of the production test fit cars, and I begged him to rush one down for the crazy car people to see at Woodward for our Design Center Woodward event.

As always I had my camera in hand, and took picts of Camaros.......ENJOY!!!!

In case u didn't notice, that was Tom Peters being interviewed in the last one.

Atom · 08-26-2011, 11:36 PM

The ONLY part not made from the production tools on the Transformers 3 Camaro, was the front fascia upper black out decal. As u can see the Cybertonian symbols were sitting on top of the black, hence they caught lint. The Production symbols are flush, and built into the stripe.

Shuffler · 08-27-2011, 12:09 AM

Stripe package looks terrible IMHO

Not a fan of the engine either.

Some of those other camaros are very nice.

Had to laugh at the wings though

Then I picked up a corvette body around the V8. I also swapped the body for a C2 Z28. (In short I traded it for three cars, a Corvette Z06r, a C2 Camaro Z28, and a Cadillac CTS Summer Performance package 3.6L DI with Aisin 6spd.)
