GM Features Transformers in New Car Advertisements!

Motto: "I still function!"
Weapon: Plasma Beam Rifle
To help promote their "Transform Your Ride" sale, GM has released new commercials to promote their vehicles as well as the Transformers Movie.

The new advertisements feature different Transformers giving pedestrians new reasons to buy a car. Check out the adverts featuring Blackout, Optimus Prime and Megatron. More of these may be out, so keep your eyes peeled.

These commercials keep up with the slightly comedic advertisements we've seen produced for Burger King and Mountain Dew.

I don't see how a Transformer with a non-car alt. mode can be used to help sell cars, but stuff blowing up is always a good thing.
Life can be pretty sweet when your alt-mode is a B-2 Stealth Bomber.

And for those of you who are wondering... I'M A GIRL!

Dammit, I should pay more attention. Megatron is more silvery in coloration. This guy is a light, dusty brown. Therefore I'd say it's Starscream.

If you pause the so-called "Megatron" vid at 00:09, you can catch a decent look of the TF's head. It's Starscream, alright.

That is definitely Megatron. Starscream's design is totally not the same.

Optimus lands on a guy's car, saying "my bad!", and it shows several cars almost finished transforming to vehicles.
