Updated Bumblebee & Mystery Supercar for Transformers Sequel

 Updated Bumblebee & Mystery Supercar for Transformers Sequel
Bumblebee

The success of the 2007 blockbuster Transformers was always bound to be followed by a sequel and next summer we will see the 2nd instalment titled “Revenge of the Fallen”. The new film will see the return of main characters including Shia LaBeouf and the Megan Fox along with some of our favourite autobots. Now an unofficial Transformers 2 blog has obtained some photos of the production set of the movie revealing an updated look for Bumblebee based on the Chevrolet Camaro and a glimpse of another as yet unidentified car.

If you remember from the first film Bumblebee wasn't quite himself at the end after receiving quite a battering from Megatron, so of course the autobot needed some rebuilding. Looking at these photos we can see Bumblebee gets an additional air intake on the hood and a lower front spoiler, suggesting the autobot gets updated to the high-spec SS version for the sequel.

Also appearing in the film will be a host of new vehicles including the Hummer HX Concept and the Chrevrolet Beat, but one photo of an this unidentified supercar caught on the set really took our fancy. There have been suggestions that it could be a corvette but the curvaceous profile of the vehicle looks very conceptish, comment below if you think you know what it is.

The 'concept' car could be the new acura (honda) nsx. Though the car does have a very sporty profile.

I think it would be a modified version of Corvette, or it is the C7 Concept. Making debut in Transformers II is not a bad idea for promoting the C7 Corvette.

...I hope it's the next generation vette/ZR1...but considering the Camaro's appearance in the movie it also might be the next gen Firebird...

Cronan, if you don't recall they used a mustang in the last film so other brands aren't out of the question, though I doubt it is the new NSX.

being all GM cars, must be a corvette concept or something like that.... or perhaps it's a baddie using another brand? (like the mustang Barricade)

It appears to be a 2 door car, so I dont think it is the Fisker.
