Thumbs up Camaro as movie star...

There are many movies which prominently feature a Camaro, but I'm searching for movies in which a Camaro is actually the star or co-star, similar to Mark Hamill & the 1973 Corvette in Corvette Summer or Barry Newman & the 1970 Challenger in Vanishing Point.

I would think Transformers fits that bill quite nicely.

Yes, I should've included it in the examples. What about classic/cult films?

Maybe Hollywood just figured Bullitt couldn't be outdone.

Another good example of the type of movie that I seek... but with a Camaro.

A movie specifically made about a Camaro?

Vanishing Point isn't about a Challenger, but the Challenger plays a very prominent part of the movie since Kowalski is driving it from Denver to California. Bullitt (McQueen's character) isn't about the Mustang, it's his ride. I won't even talk about Smokey And The Bandit, not even in the same league...

A move about a car would be "Gran Torino".

Yeah... I'm just not a King fan. You can toss "The Car" in there too, if you want SciFi stuff..
