I like it. Except for the damned Transformers tie-in. Is there any possibility to get a new yellow Camaro, and not have anyone think that you're trying to be Shia Lebouf?
Fuck it. I'll just get myself a black 2nd gen T/A with a gold screaming chicken. I'd be alright with onlookers thinking that I'm trying to be The Bandit.
Ew, Ray, I could have done without that last sentence. How's this: we'll paint a different body panel of your Camaro with this Bumblebee scheme each day of Hanukkah as long as you promise to take out your excitement in a Sebring somewhere. While wearing ladies' garments.
And dammit, I'm waiting for the actual transforming Bumblebee Limited Edition to come out... stop holding out on me, guys!
@RegalRegalia Mantide for nice price or crack pipe!: Don't forget the dealer! "Only $10k over MSRP! They tried to do that with the GT500 and the GT-R, now you can find dealers advertising both at MSRP on Craigslist.
@RegalRegalia Mantide for nice price or crack pipe!: I pulled in here to make a more, um, circumspect comment on the target audience for this but your straightforward, haiku-esque assessment trumps anything I'd have said.

I've been trying to find an Autobot gear shift knob, to no avail.

Try eBay, I'm sure someone's got Autobot shift knobs for sale.

Yes, this is (one of) my old car(s). Yes, I really put Autobot badging on the hood and the trunklid.
Yes, I still have the badge.
And yes, those are projector headlights on a Ford Thunderbird. Set #3 EVER.

Oh, and this as good a time as any to post this. This is for you, Wert.

555: not built by a company on the verge of bankruptcy.
Bumblebee: yeah...
555: named after a brand of cigarettes, which will more than likely kill you if you use them. Badass.

555: never left its owners disappointed when it didn't change into a huge robot and/or attract Megan Fox.
Bumblebee: setting owners up for disappointment.

Didn't GM owned a big chunk of Subaru at that time?

How many years ago did they first show the damn thing? How long does it take to put a new body on an existing platform?
Hurry the fuck up, GM.
