At last, the new Camaro Transformers Special Edition was unveiled! But why this? Well, according to the manufacturer, after the first movie there were countless customers asking to purchase the ‘BUMBLEBEE’ Camaro.

The new edition can be ordered as either a Rally Yellow LT or SS model while the optional RS appearance package can also be added. The V6 powered version uses a 3.6-liter engine with variable valve timing for better performance and fuel economy capable to develop 304 horsepower (227 kW) and 273 lb.-ft. of torque (370 Nm). This engine will be connected to a six-speed manual transmission but a Hydra-Matic 6L50 electronically controlled six-speed automatic, with TAPshift control, is also available. The Camaro SS comes with the spectacular 6.2-liter V8 engine delivering 426 horsepower (318 kW) and 420 lb.-ft. of torque (569 Nm). A new L99 V-8 engine is also offered with 400 horsepower (298 kW) and 410 lb.-ft. of torque (556 Nm) and a Hydra-Matic 6L80 six-speed transmission that helps delivers an EPA-estimated 25 mpg on the highway. More details and photos after the jump!

The special edition comes with new features such as Bluetooth phone connectivity, USB connectivity, XM Satellite Radio and OnStar combined with TRANSFORMERS design. “Hasbro is thrilled to team up with Chevrolet and excited to see the Camaro TRANSFORMERS Special Edition come to market for our fans to enjoy,” said Samantha Lomow, Global Brand Leader for TRANSFORMERS at Hasbro. “The yellow Camaro with the black stripes has become so iconic and closely associated with the BUMBLEBEE character that this edition was a natural fit for both companies.”
