Saleen Decepticon
Has anyone heard about the new Transformers movie coming out next summer. I have read that there are rumors saying that one of the Decepticons is going to be a Saleen Mustang. I got pictures of it before they were pulled off of the internet but I won't post them on here and cause brad any trouble. I just want to say that I am glad that the Saleen will be in the Movie but wished that it were an Autobot. So far all of the cars in the move are American cars and I bet that the Ricers are really mad about that since they put transformers stickeres all over their cars

I've recently gotten back into Transformers, and this movie is something im really looking forward too. Cant wait to see the Saleen destroy a certain rival car. 
When I get my stang, Im gonna try to find a place to make custom center caps with the Autobot symbol. I'm a nerd, I know. lol

It is true that the Saleen is going to destroy Bumble Bee when he is a 1975 camaro but he is going to come back as a new 2009 camaro and hopefully he won't return the favor. In any case I am glad that their will be no ricer cars in the movie. Heh Heh.

I wish the Saleen couldve been Prowl tho. Hopefully, the deal with GM to use their cars only extends to Optimus' current team. Maybe Wheeljack or Grimlock can show up in the 2nd or 3rd movie as their Alternator Mustang forms.
Well, Grimlock could be a GT500. He is the big and heavy Autobot/Dinobot.

Here is the link to the cars ( both the Carmaro and the Mustang)

Who knows, but I would tend to believe that Saleen would team with the movie for financial reasons.

Bumble Bee:
and good news it looks like the rest of the movie will be done right for the most part, Looks like Optimus Prime will be a kenworth rig Megatron will be an M1 Abrams MBT (still not a gun like the original but better than an alien ship) and Starscream an F22 Paptor.
The original idea and first Images of Transformers Movie Megatron

Filming didn't just start in LA. That crew was out here in Vegas a few months ago filming some action scenes. They got some of the military folks from out here at Nellis AFB to act as security. I would have done it, but I had to go out to the bombing range and do some real work (friggin national security).
My point...they are much farther along than "just started filming". Also, I think that it is good that Saleen has taken ahold of the Camaro...they can't make it look worse than it already does...it can only get better.

It looks like this Transformers movie will be heavy on the GM products? Would like to see somebody make a sticker or something like that "police" emblem on the Saleen's fender (post#16) - well, maybe replace the "police" part with something else to avoid trouble.
