As i have emntioned in the thread Coolyfett linked to, Every one of thise vehicles that people have posted for Soundwave are extremely conspicuous, and thus would be totally unsuitable for his character. No vehicle mode is suitable for him; particularly such conspicuous ones like those. He's a clandestine inflitrator, spy and communications expert, as well as Megatron's "advisor". An updated larger version of his iconic alternate mode, with mass conversion is the best mode for him. Look over in the thread mentioned to how I see Soundwave looking.

Cant have him as an F1 car - since that would look too weird - when have you ever seen an F1 car on the road. The above is the closest real car to the F1 look I could find.

that would still look weird driving down the road..cool, but still wierd and different.

You know, Dinobots as vehicles might be plausible...if you make them into triple changers. Vehicle--> Robotic Dinosaur---> Robot. It wouldn't be the same but oh well. We gotta live with the times and stop living in the past. Ain't healthy.

Silverstreak:

Mercedes SL55 AMG

Wheeljack:

Rally modified Toyota Celica

Inferno:

This one's obvious.

Skywarp:

F117A Nighthawk - It may seem unconventional but hear me out on this one: It's all-black, pretty much like Skywarp (the purple can be added to his robot mode). Plus his g1 bio stated that he was the type to utilize sneak attacks, so the Nighthawk would be perfect.

Thundercracker:

F18 Hornet (it'd be funny if TC scanned one of the Blue Angels' Hornets...) - I like the notion of the Seekers being different jets; it makes them more unique.

Personally, I prefer the Aurora for Skywarp/Thundercracker. Though, seeing's how it's supposed to utilize ramjet technology, I guess Ramjet would probably be the best choice for it! I'd like to see Jetfire be some kind of futuristic Space Plane or something, just to keep his unique alt mode status intact. No need for him to be yet another military jet when there's something neater out there.

And, though I'm sure I might be flayed for this, I kind of like the idea of the Dinobots not being dinosaurs. Chalk it up to just having reread War Within 2. So, here's my choices:
