So Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2 is something that is underway and has people interested. We noted a few weeks back that the film is ready begin shooting in New York and we also know that several new cast members are attached, including Tyler Perry as Baxter Stockman.

Now Michael Bay is sharing a few photos for some vehicles that will be appearing in the film, including the first look at the Turtles new ride. From Deadline:
That garbage truck is of course the Ninja Turtles’ “Battlewagon”, first seen at the end of the last movie. The name – “Tartaruga Brothers” – is a bad pun of course, since “tartaruga” is “turtle” in Italian. As for the sports car, that’s a Polaris slingshot, a three-wheeled motorcycle already verboten in Texas, where it isn’t street legal as a car and doesn’t meet the state’s definition of a motorcycle.
Deadline notes that the Polaris actually might be another project that Bay is attached to, but there’s no reason he should stop at having it in just one film. These turtles should all be clad in wing suits, driving GM brand vehicles, and sipping on Chinese fizzy drink. Slap some stickers on those shells and pimp it out. This is a business!
Take a closer look at the photos below and leave your thoughts. Personally, I think driving around in a souped-up dump truck would be pretty cool. Maybe throw some LED lights underneath to show some style.
