The Seven Best Chevy Camaros Of All Time And The Three Worst

December 15, 2017

Transformers Edition Camaro

Jalopnik

Okay, now we’re on to the bad stuff. The sort of Camaros that just make you wince so hard you feel you may collapse into a singularity. The Transformers Edition Camaro is the first one of the three. Of all the films that you would want to associate your brand with, why Transformers? I know that Bumblebee is a Camaro in those abortive films, but that’s a very recent change from the Beetle he always was before. To put it simply, the Ford Mustang will always be associated with Bullitt. Do Chevrolet really want to always be eternally tied to those movies that are churned out in a fashion more similar to manure being spread than anything involving actual creativity? More importantly, is there any situation in which you would wish to be tied to Michael Bay for all eternity, other than maybe if you were trapped in an abandoned mine shaft and needed to conjure an explosion from nowhere to escape?

The Telegraph

The car is functionally fine, like let’s get that out of the way. It’s still a Camaro. It’ll still be fast, it’ll still do what you expect a Camaro to do. That being said, it will also do so while looking very cheap indeed. The rally stripes look appaling, and the whole car really just looks shoddy. I mean, sure, if you have some mad love for the Transformers franchise, it’d fit the bill. Maybe if your son or daughter had some love of Transformers, and you needed some way to reconnect with your family, then, maybe, it would be a good purchase. Otherwise stay away from this cheap, nasty, and apparently unthinking marketing partnership. Once again: Bullitt or Michael Bay’s Transformers?
