For the fourth film in the Transformers movie franchise, Transformers: Age of Extinction; director Michael Bay demanded a series of extensive modifications to the Bumblebee Camaro, the movie's biggest star. Okay, maybe Megan Fox is the better known star of the series, but she's not in this one. The Bumblebee Camaro remains a steady constant, getting more awesome with every sequel. In this one, the car gets edgier, and more aggressive, modified with features not seen on the road today. Changes were deliberated by director Michael Bay, GM's Vice President of Global Design Ed Welburn and the GM North Hollywood Advanced Design Centre. Revisions took a month to redesign, and an additional three months to build. Chevy Sonics, which appear in the film too, also received revisions including 300 hp engines, widened stances, and full roll cages. The Bumblebee Camaro has been transformed for the newest Transformers movie. It's sporting a bunch of design changes, to help it fight alongside Optimus Prime and the other Autobots. The Bumblebee is still based on a 2014 Camaro SS. It's stance is two inches wider on each side, making it appear more aggressive. Other changes affected the lamps, front fascia, rocker panels, spoiler, exhaust and rear lower diffuser. Special attention was paid to the car's hood.

Last week Chevrolet showed off the new #2014 Camaro Z28. Once very popular, this version was absent from the return of the famous American muscle car. For it's return, the Z28 went to Germany to demonstrate it's prowess on the demanding Nürburgring. It definitely impressed, getting around the circuit in 7 minutes and 37.4 seconds, a time comparable to that of several exotic sports cars.

Hot on the heels of their ressurection of the much loved and missed Stingray, GM has pulled a new trick out of it's hat, and it's a great one. The Z28 has come back to life! Chevy says that it's their most track-capable car ever. I say it's a 500 HP Camaro! If I didn't have space to fill on this page, that really would be all that anyone needs to know... At the recent New York Auto Show, Chevrolet took everyone by surprise by announcing the 2014 Camaro Z28. The Z28, one of the most revered names in the domestic automotive industry, hasn't been sold since 2002. During the announcement, Chevy disclosed that they are updating the entire Camaro line with minor tweaks involving trim, nose and tail. While the Z28 is indeed legendary, there is nothing heritage about it but the name. This is a modern road rocket.

A new video showing how the Chevrolet Corvette is assembled offers a fun and instructive virtual tour of the car assembly process. It highlights the complexity of the model, but also the know-how of General Motors with this vehicle.
