5th Gen Camaro in Transformer Movie

Also, Saleen has since been divorced from Ford after the MAJOR GT40 Fkup. They're an anymaker shop now.

Thats clearly not a functional car.... I like the paint though...

ok just wanted to make a correction on my original post, someone was speculating it's a skinned mustang, not saying it really was. I thought they were saying it was, my bad. These posts are flying around right now too quickly to keep up but I'll keep you guys up to date as I can.

Yeah LOL but don't worry, I get my share poontang! Chicks dig a man that is young at heart!

Ok, I grew up with the transformers, and I remember autobots and decepticons. But I don't admit it in public. It's like female repellant

forgot one:

So Saleen is a GM addition now? No more Ford?

What's with the fake brake rotors?? There is not even any brake calipers. Must be a show/roller car for the movie set and not a driver. The door handles and exhaust pipes look fake also.

Well, from what I heard Rousch was planning on doing a tuner 5th gen when it came out, Saleen not so sure. If this is a reskinned Mustang with Camaro panels on it, that would explain the Saleen plate, but the interior is Camaro not Mustang, so I'm not so sure that it's a reskinned Mustang.

From what I've heard, there's a real driver Camaro -- it was spotted in Troy at the Saleen plant. A guy drove behind it and followed it for awhile but he didn't have a camera to prove it. He posted that he saw this Camaro before these pictures surfaced, everyone called him a liar and said he was making it up, actually they tore into him pretty good, then these pics came to the surface and everyone's all "Doh, sorry bro!" haha. So, from the sounds of it, this is an actual drivable car -- the tires to rim look weird, someone said maybe it was a hubcap with fake rotors built into the hubcap. Not sure. Someone else said if you zoom in on one of the pics you can see the caliper, I don't see it at all so I'm not sure.

hubcap.

hubcap.

Holy hubcap!!!! In a way, I find that dissapointing. lol.

[wezeles]

i dont know thats a step above the spinner hubcaps..lol now we know what all the v-6 camaros with no options will be sporting.. ha ha
still kinda wierd they can just get body panels... the ones for the other two cars were custom jobs... unless somewere there is a tool already built to punch out the metal... meaning its that much closer to production...

[GETGONE]

That's interesting they faked a hupcap like that. The Concept car was SMC/fiberglass and the red roller car was pure fiberglass shell. Interesting the body panels appear to be spot on from the concept.

So Saleen is a GM addition now? No more Ford?

No no, they're just not a Ford-Only shop now. More of a free-agent kind of thing.

5th Gen like you've never seen it.

So, remember this thread that Brian posted up the pics of the yellow 5th gen in the new Transformers movie?

Well, apparently this is what the car's transformed robot will look like. Pretty neat, looks pretty big.

[SS4Matt]

that's kinda cool....looks like it's made out of superbike parts more then any car or camaro for that matter...
