BUT the part about Ed Welburn taking him through the design rooms and asking what he likes IS in the present tense. Put me in the camp that suspects that this TF4 car maybe, just maybe shares some design cues (e.g., the front grill and/or headlights) with the next Camaro.

i actually suspect it does. that front end looks like a further evolution of the 2014.
i don't believe Bay has any say in it though.

It WAS the best tie in EVER! I was 21 when Transformers came out and even I drooled all over myself at how bad ass the Camaro truly was. Everyone on here always talks about admirers? My admirers are always little boys screaming "CAMARO!!!!"

I really hope the 6th gen looks nothing like the TF4 car.

That's exactly what I thought. Does Michael Bay even own a camaro in real life? Why (other than being polite) would Ed Welburn ask him what he likes?

Well, I don't necessarily take this to mean Bay thinks Welburn is asking his advice on car design. 'What do you like?' could simply mean 'Which of these would you like to use in your movie?'

All good stuff here... I still would of thought we would have seen something by now.. Even a leaked sketch.. The anticipation is killing me!!!

That's what Bay meant.. They were asking him what cars do you like at this test facility...I will post the rest of the article.. Can't find it on the net anywhere...

I'm impressed that we haven't seen any sort of mules driving around at this point.

[AZCamaroFan]

maybe they look so much like 5thgens we have and we didn't know it.

Do you think we will see it at the NAIAS in January?

Here's another quote from Michael Bay and it's dated May 24th, 2014:

Bumblebee starts out as a modified ’67 Camaro, then morphs into a 2014 custom-made version. “GM is actually shrinking the Camaro now, and we were like, ‘Whoa, whoa, whoa.’ So we worked with the designers, making it wider and neater,”

Bay says. “I told them, ‘Be prepared — customers are going to want this.’”

Sorry but he DOES have an influence on the Camaro's design.

I hope it's not the real thing because it looks too much like my old 2005 Cavalier...and we all know the current Camaro sold more off its looks than it's performance and practicality.

Wow!!!.. That's crazy!!!.. But remember in Transformers 2 Bumble Bee looked like a ZL1 a little.. Who created that style?.. Bay or GM??

It might be the best tie in but bumblebee wishes he could sell cars like the bandit did. The bandit sold more Pontiac F-body cars from 77-79 than the entire 5th gen run will. Plus it only took him 1 movie to do it lol.
