The left video is with Micah Jones, Interior Design Team for the Camaro, who discusses how the Camaro is a fit for Transformers since its "a bridge from the past to the present." Actually a pretty good argument if listen. Course I am biased as I think not using a Beetle was a smart decision. He also just discusses his enjoyment of Transformers in general and comes across as a genuine Transfan.
The right video is a shorter and goofier video with Tom Peters, Director of Exterior Design for the Camaro. He talks about why he thinks the Camaro was chosen as the car for Bumblebee. Thanks to Mary for the link.
Update: At the request of Paramount, GM removed the videos. Personally I don't see what the issue was. The videos talked about the Camaro and why they think it was a good choice to be in the movie. Nothing Paramount owned was even in the video (the Camaro I would think is GMs).
Sounds like over zealous lawyers cause I get the feeling there is major crackdown on anything that even sniffs of potential copyright infrigement (so beware you bittorrent folks) as they don't want to lose even 1 penny of potential sales. Course I am thinking that if your satisfied with a crappy copy of the movie on your computer screen chances are you didn't plan on going to pay and see the movie to begin with, but the lawyers, they work on the 1:1 ratio belief, ie every copy downloaded is 1 sale not made. Not true, but anyway.
