Rumored shots from the vehicles to be used in the new Spielberg live action "Transformers" movie...The rumor says the Camaro starts off as a beat up 2nd gen, gets destroyed, and rebuilt as a '09 model....looks great in color.

More Transformer Camaro Pics (http://www.leftlanenews.com/2006/05/31/new-chevy-camaro-to-star-transformers-movie/)

On a funny note, apparently new Mustang Police Cars are "Bad Guys" shown in the quarter graphics...Car looks great with the black wheels...

Looks like they used a plain black steel wheel or something, and a big wheel cover that looks like the concept camaro alloy wheels with a fake rotor.

The fake rust on the old 2nd gen looks pretty real! The "Joe Dirt" Daytona was done the same way.

I thought I was the only one. I've seen that movie at least 50 times, and still laugh as hard as the first time.

Joe Deer-tay.
*from memory*

"Don't try to church it up son. Don't you mean Joe DIRT? You're daddy must have really hated you, naming you that.

"You're wrong brother"

"I got a name for this car... how 'bout RUSTY?"

"Sh*t'll buff out"

"Don't bother. Why don't you do us all a favor and drive this piece of crap off a cliff?"

"Could a piece of crap do this? You like them spinnin' tires, do ya?


*yes, I've seen that movie at least a couple times too* :rofl:

I've seen all of these cars being built at Saleen Special Vehicles in Troy, MI. They are actually putting the concept camaro body over a couple of 06 GTOs. The black mustang police cars are Saleen mustangs. Pretty cool stuff!
