Camaro concept and Saleen to be in the Transformers movie

[Evolution]

Clicky

The Camaro looks real sharp. If it looks anything close to that when it goes into production... And the Saleen is... Well... It's a Saleen, dressed up in Transformers/Police car colors :-p. Not much to say about that one. BTW... gotta love the license plate on the Camaro :LMAO:.

[kewl]

That Camaro probably doesn't go any slower then 100MPH. That car just speaks fast to me, I love it. Saleens not too bad in police colors either.

i would love to see this movie. 8)

Some information has surfaced a bit since then. A lot, including myself, laughed at the Saleen license plate on the Camaro Concept. However...

CC: Are the rumors of you teaming up with GM true or false?

Saleen: My team just worked with GM last month on the Transformers movie. We had such a good relationship with them that we are in fact going to team up with them on future projects.

CC: What future projects?

Saleen: Well the Camaro project is one of them, I've watched from a distance while they've been putting the production model together. I think it would be foolish on our part if we didn't get a part of that action (Steve laughs).

CC: So are you going to do your own versions of the new Camaro?

Saleen: It's not legally official right now, but that's what we're hoping for.

CC: What kind of upgrades will you make, have you seen the engine GM is using in the Camaro?

Saleen: I hope I don't get in trouble with GM for saying this, but they're using a 6.2 liter 450 horsepower engine for the premium V8 in the 2009 Camaro and the base Corvette. The base V8 will probably be a detuned version of the same 6.2. So we'll just upgrade the 6.2 liter V8 to Saleen level specifications. We're going to upgrade the 6.2 liter V8 if we're given the legal chance by GM. Our base model should have around 485 horsepower, and expect our Extreme Supercharged Camaro to have over 600 horsepower.
