Chevrolet to offer Bumblebee Camaro, but no Indy 500 Pace Car?


It's just a sign of the times. The four previous iterations of the Chevrolet Camaro Indy 500 pace car sold in the thousands, but this year the only one you will see was the one in the race itself. A spokesman said "In order to keep special editions special, we can't go to that well too often."

A well that they will be tapping, however, is that of the mega hit Transformers and the upcoming sequel, Revenge of the Fallen. Rumor has it that Chevy will indeed offer a limited edition Bumblebee Camaro. The car, available with either V6 or V8 power, will be available for order June 1 and the first cars are scheduled to roll down the assembly line on the 24th of that month, which, not coincidentally, is the same day the movie is scheduled for released in the U.S.
