2010 Chevrolet Camaro Transformers Special Edition - Click above for a high-res image gallery
Last but not least among this year's Comic-Con rides: GM's Transformers Special Edition Chevy Camaro. You likely remember the details, but in case you don''t, here's a refresher: for around a thousand bucks, you get a bunch of Autobot and Transformers logos on your otherwise stock-trim machine. The only requirement is that the car needs to be Rally Yellow, for maximum Bumblebee effect. In case you were wondering, you can get pretty much the exact same car, sans all the movie tie-in pieces of flair, for $470 over sticker; that's what plain black stripes cost when you order them alone. But you know, this is more collectible. Probably. Hit the gallery below for the shots Drew snapped of the V6 RS with the factory Bumblebee package at Comic-Con this weekend.

This is one of those things that is so dumb it isn't even ironic. Not even the darker yellow that Bumblebee had?

there is a sucker born every minute.
I grew up with transformers so they are special to me, the movies were "okay", but GM and michael bay have been destroying the whole franchise.

I still think they really ought to have put the Autobot logo in the center of the steering wheel... oh well.

Wow..this is just LAME. The Camaro is a ncie lookin gcar, but this jsut adds to the cheap [GM] feel.
And the YELLOW paint isnt even the same DARK YELLOW paint in Transformers!
LAME.
Anyone who buys this package...is simply a child.
But that can be a good thing!

We already have the Bullitt but I'm waiting on the Vanishing Point Challenger with a bag of speed and six pack of beer.

At least the Bullitt had some performance upgrades that proved to be worthy

I can't possibly convey how much I HATE this and everything it stands for.

+1 there isn't much I can say that hasn't already been said about this vehicle in it's past 3 blog posts..."Do not touch" was just the icing on the cake for me.

Well, this is good for Ford, at least their many variants that everyone complains about look much better now.

Maybe if you took a big hit of acid, it would. Then I could see an overweight car from a company on the fast track to Chapter 7 with a Playskool-grade interior to be appealing. Maybe.

I'm thinking GM did the same thing . lol

I'm thinking maybe the feds SHOULD give Fritz, Lutz, and LaNeve some government-grade LSD (they still have it in some government laboratory I'm sure, the army used to experiment with it) and see if their corporate strategy actually starts making more sense.
Hey, it can't hurt!

Stupid-ass gimmick for a stupid-ass car from a stupid-ass bankrupt company.
The film sucked too, kinda like GM.
