Looks like nelson the site admin of Michael Bay's Shoot for the Edit forums is being especially generous today. After just revealing that the red Ferarri 458 Italia will be Dino, he has now dropped the name of the blue Mercedes E550. Drum roll please.........................

Que. Pronounced "Q."


He also provided a link to the Wikipedia entry for "Q" from the James Bond franchise in his post.

His name is in homage to Que from James Bond.

Note: Que means 'what' in portuguese. LOL

This whole name confusion is so retarded I don't believe any of this crap. For example the thing that was said about soundwave not being the silver mercedes because the mercedes company wouldn't like having their car as a decepticon thats crap it is soundwave. And why in the world would they just make up some random transformers characters and names for the move when there is a whole universe to go off of? :-x

I'm think I'm gonna go find this "Nelson" guy and pummel him. This misdirection campaign is annoying.

I'm not sure if I believe this or not. I think an Aston Martin would be more appropriate for a character called "Q," though...

I'll believe it when I see it or hear it in the film.

You did, they used that name during production.

Once again, it's of no consequence to me, since there was no resemblance to Wheeljack to begin with.

Both of those names suck ass, but maybe that wheeljack nickname, and dino meh

kinda odd since wheeljack is in the game. i know it probably has nothing to do with the movie just sayin. and yes, id rather have wheeljack too.

*sigh* Damn it I just found out that

Bay didn't pick the name, Ferrari did, it couldn't be a name attached to Hasbro's Transformers brand, blah blah, yadda yadda.

Then IMO, they never should have used the ferrari in the place. Its not like there isn't a slew of sports/exotic cars to choose from. Heck, Put a ZR1 Corvette in its place. I understand that product placment like this pays the bills, but when they dictate the role and more importantly the name, thats crap. Homage doesn't need to given to Ferrari in this case. This is not a Ferrari movie. This is probabaly going to be the worst name in TF history. :BANG_HEAD:

The worst name in TF history? "Erector" "Flare-up" and more would like to have a word with you outside, 5150.

i won't belive anything until i see the film for myself. we are all quite aware of Bay and his games since the production stages of the first film.

Who the hell taught Nelson to spell? Last time I checked there was no Q in Wheeljack!

W-H-E-E-L-J-A-C-K...nope. Hmmm, let's try the other Mercedes character. S-O-U-N-D-W-A-V-E...nope, there's no Q in that name either. Go back to school, dumbass!!

Posted by jaws on June 3rd, 2011 @ 11:00pm CDT
Novel, movie adaptation, prequel = Wheeljack, so I'm going to call him "Q"

Lol "Q" and "Dino"? I wonder how awkward that would be to pronounce in the movie lol. Optimus goes like "Greetings Q and Dino" Imagine how funny would that sound >.<.
Re: Blue Mercedes E550 Name Revealed (1233772)
Posted by _I_Am_Megatron_ on June 4th, 2011 @ 11:12am CDT
Why make him look like Wheeljack in robot mode and then it not be him? lol

I bet his head even lights up.

we might as well wait for the movie to come out b/c there are so many names being passed around it is getting confuzing :-?
I still think it is going to be wheel jack though...
But i cant wait for the third installment of TF :BOT:
