The only good part is the tail lights which they refuse to start selling and I am getting so impatient waiting for them!!!!!

When I saw the first pic I thought it was ugly but decided to hold judgment because surely it can't be that bad. Boy was I wrong.

I'm sure this will boost 6th gen sales. not.

Saddest part of this is that the Mustang looks much better than the Camaro! How could they do that to a beautiful Camaro and all of us Camaro fans!

Awful. Bumblebee looked awesome in the first few transformers. This is just so ugly. I hate the wheels and spoiler so much. Should just be using a very slightly modified 2017 ZL1 model

Honestly, when you consider this is only a movie car and is intended to have a visual 'effect', it's not really that bad.

This shot makes it look like the car has a severe underbite but I think it is just the angle playing tricks on the perception.



And on the back end - if the extra canards(?) on each corner were gone, that goofy looking lack center section was not there (which makes the rear look like a face/front) and the wing a little less ricey, it would be better. Black tail lights are a good thing.



One of the biggest issues is the huge mass of black on the top, hood, and trunk of the car. The stripes we saw on the first Gen 5 BB were much better in my view. This just looks like someone spilled a can of black paint on the car and it landed as it appears. The fact that the hood paint is not even symmetrical with the hood itself just seems silly and those extra vents are too busy. But I think they were going for the shape of the Transformer's logo but still...

And those shark fins on the side splitters probably have some 'purpose' for the transformed BumbleBee as probably do most of those 'features'.

But considering it's a movie car, it probably could have been a lot worse.

That's because it's a v6

Well I've gone against the grain pretty much my entire life. No point in changing now.....I think it's awesome. I've never been a big fan of traditionalist styling. I mean I like my gen 5 with a nod to it's predecessors but it was brash and modern and risky for 2010. I kinda wish they had thrown caution to the wind and done something like this for the gen 6. not that there's anything wrong with the design I love it.
Bumblebee gets 2 thumbs up from me.

Here's how I think the talk may have gone
Michael Bay: "So, what should we do for the new Bumblebee?"
Dumbass: "How about we deform the front end, and go down that AutoZone rice isle everyone tells you to stay away from, buy one of everything, and slap it all on?"
Michael Bay: "Edgy! I like it! Do it!"

the car just looks to "thrown together".
