    I don't understand why people feelt the need to put a spoiler on the rear of the car. Isn't it only cosmetic if it's in the back. If people truly wanted the spoiler to serve its intended purpose, wouldn't they place it in the front?

    It is only cosmetic if it is non-functional. The reason for the spoiler on the rear is to increase rear downforce and keep the car from spinning out. Front downforce allows the car to turn, while rear downforce keeps the car planted. It is a delicate balance.

    Fell upon this thread while trying to find some new pics of BB. First off I am an owner of a 2010 Camaro so its safe to say I love the looks of one :)  Now for the changes in BB I can say its a GM marketing thing which kind of pains me because it goes against what BB is or was. The wheels on the car are the optioned 21" wheels you can get from ordering the car, and the rear spoiler was suppose to be offered as a dealer add on so I would say its on the car to see how the reactions go for the look. I for one dont care for it as it looks out of place. I understand they want a more mature look but to change the whole appearance of the car was not needed. They went from the standard SS version to the RS version with the halo headlights and went away from the "Z28" hood :(  It now has basically a stock front look to it besides the front bumper cover. The badges on the car are what you can get when you ordered the Transformer edition Camaro which came with the badges on the fenders, center caps for the wheels, Tranformer embedded into the stripes, Tranformers on the door sills, and an autobot symbol on the arm rest. As stated I think this is a GM marketing ploy which I dont understand why it is since the Camaro is selling like hot cakes ever since it came out. I really love the way BB looks in ROTF and I will end up getting that hood and front bumper cover on my Inferno Orange Metallic SSRS in the next few months. Oh and for those talking about the Z28's future well lets just say it is planned on returning but only for a limited edition and the price tag will not be cheap lol.

    I cant wait to see the new movie and as stated earlier, you have to take them for what they are......... Movies!!!

    Here is a pic of my car just to show the front of it compared to BBs latest version.

    That front end is actually an RS front and not an SS front. You can get that front on the V6 model as well (Halo HID headlights).
