I am not uptight , and don't get offended easily . That being said , this is the biggest and best Camaro forum on the net -- and allowing a post with a topic which will obviously be offensive to some people is a shame and makes this great forum look bad.

Scheunika (correct spelling) -- is the name of my beautiful , African American fiancée. And to make a racial joke about a black ZL1 referring it to an obvious African American name is poor judgement -- and classless.

It's like calling an S550 "Hitler" -- just distasteful and classless , not something that should be on the best camaro site on the web.

My fiancé is beautiful , and I thank god she doesn't read this forum , and it makes me sad -- the thought of her looking at me on a camaro forum , reading a topic calling a new 55k+ car "Shaniqua" -- because the car is black.

Shame on the people who think this is "funny" . If you have enough to spend on a ZL1 camaro Mr. Drake -- I suggest you spend a few bucks on etiquette classes.

I think you're mistaken on Drake's intent on what he names his vehicle. If he feels the name given is something that fits his personality and what he wants to portray to others, let him.

He has not made any nagative comments about the source of the name and whom may typically be named that.

If you have a problem with how people intreact on the web or even this site, you have a great tool at your command. Report them to a mod. If they feel that the intent was to offend they will take care of it as they always have.
