Now I'm thinking I spoke too soon when I said I wanted orange or red, that blue looks awesome.

I'd love to play with the psd if you could send it my way (email though my id <)

That is one of the things I really like about it. Makes it look aggressive and not big and pudgy like the Challenger.

Just my thoughts though.

Because it was a custom ~$14k paint job instead of a photoshop of a grainy, all white, unfinished preproduction car.

Sorry.. but the Photoshop is not badly done. as a matter of fact it would be very hard to distinguish real life than this...

Anyways... If you look at the FENDER from bumblebee you will see its TOTALLY different, its much wider and still has a flare... it looks better than this production unit... in black is not so bad because it camos it. Anyways.. in the end... one can't judge till we see it in person... I bet the perspective will make it totally different.. Same sentiment i had with the c6 vette.

^ sorry I misunderstood -- but I think the original picture is also playing tricks on your eyes with the fender as well. White cars (and black for that matter) are really difficult to discern details of the car. I really think the production car will look remarkably similar to Bumblebee when you see it on the road and properly painted. The paint can have a big impact on the definition of features -- which can be difficult to discern in a 'chop of a white car.

Sorry, I didn't mean to be testy -- I am just a little sleep deprived.

Thanks Rampant! Those are badass.





A side by side...

I can't wait for mine. I just hope that pre-pro has 18" wheels.

Thank you for adding the spoiler. I noticed it was missing in that released picture and it really weakens the back end of the car. It looks much better with than without.

Wow, Rampant, your work is AWESOME, Sir. Thanks! I know what you mean about needing to stop. I've got to limit my time on this site! At this rate, by the time the car comes out they are going to have to suction me out of my recliner! I said I would never have another black car...but that black, be still my soul!
