A few months ago Bumblebee was rumored to have become a convertible due to a change in design for the Chevy Camaro and now its Sideswipe's turn. In Revenge of the Fallen, Sideswipe's alt mode was the Corvette Stingray Concept car. Corvette Blogger was posted an image of a convertible version of the concept car spotted near a Transformers 3 set that suggests that Sideswipe might get an upgrade. Since the vehicle has yet to be released by Chevy, I am sure they wouldn't mind the current model making an appearance in the movie. It way too early to say this is an accurate assumption as we don't even know if the character is in the movie. This is a very sleek looking ride so it might be a welcome alteration to the character.

I wasnt a fan of the corvette concept. Sideswipe should rescan
ReplyDeleteyoure just hateing
DeleteI liked the stylized stingray element of the car's roof. If it becomes a convertible, then that element will be gone.
ReplyDeleteis TF3 filming near beverly hills? because that's where that convertible was spotted, At least according to Jalopnik. and I Believe them more than some conspiracy theorist transfans.
ReplyDeleteIf it was gold it would make a good Sunstreeker. At this point I say its some sort of a kit.
ReplyDeleteSideswipe looked great in TF2...if it ain't broke don't fix it!
ReplyDeleteHe needs more screen time not a new ride.
ReplyDeletethat is just a C6 corvette with a stingray speedster body kit. and it's in beverly hills...nothing to do with TF3.

Bilal: Great observation. It's definitely a kit car from another angle. You can see the door gaps, the headlights inside the front air dam, and some other really hard to find things if you've been looking at this and the actual Stingray for some time.
ReplyDeleteNice ride, definitely grabs attention, but certainly NOT Sideswipe.
Loks like an upgrade to me...
ReplyDeleteLooks like this is actually Sideswipe!
ReplyDeleteBelow is a video showing the updated concept corvette along with bumblebee and the new ferrari on set. I'm so glad he'll be back!
