Potential Partial Meaning of Bumblebee's license plate

Now I recall some of us wondering if the license plates had any hidden meanings a few months back.

While reading a current wizard a reader wrote in saying the BB's plate does indded have a hidden message.

4NZZ454

The ZZ454 part is actually the designation of a Chevy crate motor for the hot rods and performance vehicles.

4N= Foreign

So could it mean that he is a foreign high performance vehicle?

Something to think about.

If its been covered before then cool. I can't remember these days with all of the different topics.


P.s. I looked at my 74 BB and the plate on his crotch is actually typo'ed it says 4NZZZ454.

In his first alternate form, his license plate was 489 PCE.

In both forms, he has California license plates.

this was discussed over at camaroZ28.com with Scott Settlemeyer (GM Marketing Exec) and the licenses plate doesn't mean squat.

Even if it did Chevy cannot be a foreign high performance. Even though it started being built in Los Angles and then moved to Canada. It's still AMERICAN

Not even in Cybertron would Chevy be foreign:grin:

Not chevy, Bumblebee is foreign, and he is a high performance machine.

So is this something I should care about in terms of the movie or is this just something you found out?

its a nifty tidbit thats all. not everything has to relate to a hidden plot point or some obscure transformers episode.

Yeah, and I's assume that "foreign" was as little play on the fact that TF's are from WAY far away.
