Despite recent economic woes that have hit the powerhouse automobile manufacturer, General Motors is still managing to push its highly anticipated and sought after 2009 Cheverolet Camaro. In a new commercial for the vehicle, GM uses footage from both Transformers the live action film and Revenge of the Fallen, showing off the vehicles sleek body and fuel saving designed V6 engine (estimated at 29 Miles per gallon highway).

If this bad boy really did transform, GM wouldn't be filing for bankruptcy.

Hmmm. When I win the lottery... it's either going to be the Chevy Camaro.. or the new Corvette Stingray.

Hell, I'll just make it both.

Being a Canadian citizen, we are 17-18% stakeholders of GM, and I believe the Camaro plant is here in Ontario anyway, so I can boast to own every Camaro on the assembly line to the dealerships.

The production model isn't as alluring as the movie one. Smaller wheels and wheel wells.

They're selling the silver one, yet they make it perfectly clear that it's the yellow one that transforms instead.

Don't tell me that, cause Apple Chevy down the street from my place has the Bumblebee Camaro on their lot. Maybe not THE BB, but one in the same paint scheme as the first film.

That's cause (in the first movie) it was the concept camaro and not the production. Personally,i think the production looks better. The 20" wheels look better than the concepts 22"'s.

Starting this month they will be selling the "Bumble Bee" edition witch will be a movie replica. Same wheels, hood, front bumper and yellow with black stripes.(actually, the yellow is going to be slightly different than the movie car)

I meant in the commercial, they're selling the silver one. The yellow one is just for show (and bot-kicking action).
