    More pics on the front page post, BTW.

    Yeah, it's got a stripped interior, odd/different from the movie shots and the production camaro.

    Also has silver windshield wipers.

    It's funny how the production team can't get the look of this car right.
    In Revenge of the Fallen, the size of those trapezoidal black things around the lower lights in the car's front kept changing between real shots and CG shots. For instance, the size of them on the Bumblebee robot doesn't remotely match the size of them in the car.
    And now in Dark of the Moon, the car shown in the MechTech gun display doesn't have those things and is back to the first movie's design for those lights.

    Those were at least mock-wipers. Even if not functioning. Saw it while there, just forgot to snap a close up of them.

    What car is that? The headlights look like the Italia, but the car is not.

    Pretty sure the camero with the gun on it was not the one we'll be seeing in the new movie. I'll tell you for sure when I actually SEE the new movie, but that car looked closer to the one from the first movie.

    Also, I'm remembering autobot emblems on the hubcaps- unless that was just in the first movie (which is certainly possible). But it does seem like there was a discreet emblem somewhere on the outside of the car, and I'm not finding it.

    A lot of times movie prop vehicles wont have "real" brakes or wheels unless it is a hero car or for close ups. Anything that is a driving shot or a wide shot will have a more "prop" feel to it.

    I do remember the pictures from on set showing a small Autobot logo under the Camaro script on the fender.

    Yeah, no. The one with the MechTech gun isn't the one used for the movie. It's the GM Transformers edition Camaro SS.
