While many of you do not like that he has one, I think you are missing the very important big picture. You now have a high-quality GM product being supported by high-profile celebrities who want to put their own personalities into the car. In effect, they help to legitimize that product, and other people start to see themselves in it with their own customizations to it. This leads to a large aftermarket with lots of custom cars on the road. More custom cars means that parts prices will go down because there will be lots of aftermarket competition and lots of parts available. This also leads to lots of sales for GM, and a potentially long life for the product. We want all of this.

In other words, even Camaros that we don't stylistically appreciate are good for us in ways we might not expect.

Very true my man. Though it's not my taste, it is good for GM and all of us with future plans for aftermarket applications for our Camaros.

Agreed.. I just don't like his 'singing'. Car is alright, though all he threw on were some "RIMZ YO!".. C'mon. If you've got the cash, do some performance/cosmetic mods. Don't donk it and blow it all on rims. That's why they have 80s Caprices on craiglist for a dime a dozen..

Lil Boosie faces more legal problems, as he was arrested on Wednesday (October 22) after the rapper was found with marijuana and a gun in his hometown of Baton Rogue. According to reports, Lil Boosie, born Torrance Hatch, pulled up next to police officers in East Baton Rogue, who allegedly smelled the odor of marijuana coming from the rapper’s white Dodge Challenger.

When they approached his vehicle, the 25-year-old refused to get out of the car at officers commands and attempted to drive away.

A search of the vehicle also turned up a firearm as well.

Lil Boosie was charged with possession of possession of marijuana, possession of a firearm with a controlled dangerous substance and resisting an officer.

The arrest comes on the heels of his rapping partner Webbie being arrested on similar charges, after leading police on a high speed car chase in Mississippi on September 14.

Webbie, born Webster Gradney Jr., was arrested and charged with DUI and marijuana possession, after police attempted to pull over his Dodge Challenger for a traffic violation on Interstate 59.

He ignored the officers lights and continued driving, until he collided with another vehicle.

Both rappers also face several multi-million dollar lawsuits throughout the country, for allegedly booking shows, keeping the advance monies and failing, or refusing to perform.

The pair are best known for their hit singles "Wipe Me Down" and "Independent."
