Today at Comic-Con, General Motors officially announced the 2010 Chevy Camaro Transformers Special Edition. The $995 appearance package can be applied to LT (V6) and SS-trim Camaros in Rally Yellow with or without the optional RS package. So, whadda ya get for the dough? It's very straightforward:

* Autobot insignia fender badges and wheel caps
* An embroidered Autobot insignia on the center console
* Gloss-black rally stripes with Transformers logos
* Transformers-logo doorsill plates

If you were hoping for more, such as the Z/28 fascia and hood, the storm drain-sized exhaust outlets used on Bumblebee in Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, or, say, an actual robot mode, you're outta luck. There are no performance upgrades, either -- you'll simply have to make do with the 304, 400, or 426 horsepower that comes standard, depending on which base config you select. If you desperately want your own Bumblebee but are turned off by the whole Transformers brand-mania thing, you can still do the obvious thing and order up a regular Rally Yellow car and simply add plain black rally stripes for $470. We'd do that. Check out the official press release after the jump.


Damnit, No "actual robot mode"!

At first I was :drool: then I was :(

It looks fine with just the striping, but the badges are pretty gay once you see them close up

[Doozer]

Hahahaha

Imagine how you'd feel today if you were driving around in a "Jurassic Park" edition Ford Explorer. I'm sure these buyers are going to be stripping that crap off in a few years once the hype dies down.

(PS - I don't believe that truck was actually sold, and there's probably a reason for that)

Or you could get $10 worth of black vinyl and put on your own stripes.

At least it'll be worth a lot in 50 years when it's one of the only ones on the road that someone actually paid for.

[Jeremiah]

Wow thats expensive.

who would want the word transformers written on the stripes anyways?

[snoop101]

Does it come with a hot chick?

[sputnik]

What a waste of $995 USD that would be.

I can't wait for some moron to get one, put it in a garage for 30 years, bring it to Barrett-Jackson and end up selling it for half of what he paid for it.

[Masked Bandit]

It looks nice and all but I wonder if having Transformer badges would hurt the resale down the road?

[JordanEG6]

a G with no performance upgrades...what a rip-off hahaha.

It thought it was bumble bee.Don't you think so?Tranformers is not just a movie but a great place of idea for new cars.I was looking to megatron and other transformers how they look like when they were cars.

I was surprised the SUV had so little damage, the car front end is totally flattened afterwards.

Them crumple zones. They sure do crumple. :D

There is a guy in the city with one of these I think. It was black and He had the autobot symbols on all his center caps. I only saw it briefly so I can't say for sure.

That and all the trucks, stock and modded, with decepticon and autobot symbols plastered all over.:facepalm:
