well, at least Dodge isn't billing this as a four-door coupe like MB with that new sedan...

four door coupe?! Those two word are opposites!!!

Junkster, who hates the marketing people that came up with that

the 4 door thing kills a classic and 50 (aka BOBO) is a idiot for paying that much to get one first

When is there going to be a good muscle car throwback, aside from the new GT stang?

HellaShookOne wonders about Junkster's sanity jk

It's a rap video, what do you expect? Seems like rappers really like the 300C, Charger, and Magnum.

Well, with the economy not so healthy, even rappers need to down-scale their bling...

What next? dropping from Cristal to Mickey's?

Junkster, who thinks every rapper should have a Maybach

yea its a rap video but, put that shit in park if your ghonna show off the doors.

After getting shot like a million times, I would feel horrible if 50 Cent fell out and got rolled over by his spinners because his doors werent properly secured

Again, it's a rap video on a closed street. Ever seen a Cash money video? They had a video of guys hanging out the doors of Lamborghinis while doing AWD donuts.

Yeah, Cash Money can get away with that because they are driving real lamboz and they have hella cash money. It just loox fookin stupid when a car drives down the road with its lambo doors open. It seems like he is trying to fly or something.

50 cent could walk away with any car he wanted. It's reported that he took home over 70 million in 2004 due to his record sales and endorsment deals. The man knows how to market himself and his lifestyle very well. Who cares what he buys as long as he likes it? It's like the millionaire who buys a 300ZX because he loves the styling


And I'm sure he isn't paying a dime for it.

This is pure unadulterated commercialism. The man used to slang crack. He loves money.

Good for him, and the suckers who fall for the image and buy the car.

They know its a great market to attack. Just look at the 300c's.. They had it now everyone has it with 22's// Look at the Nelly video, i think its Get your eagle on.. he had the Magnum on 22;s too. now everyone is putting rims on them. I mean. why dodge? why not get MB's or what. It would be nice for them to get Ac's and put them on the map./ Maybe they should give Rl's and TL up to them and let them customize the shit out of them see how much more their sales will go up. But then again i know alot of you will complain. Look at that fool. RICER!!! blahh blahhh that car is not meant for that. and soo on and on and on...

IMO the charger is ugly and I find it funny these rappers are all into this and the 300C.

On another subject that I saw mentioned, I also find it stupid MB is calling the CLS the first 4 door coupe. WTF that makes no sense and people who actually think it is a coupe are stupid and should be taken outside and beaten.

There's no accounting for taste (or lack thereof).

They should at least offer a 2-door variant.

It looks like they totally disregarded the old design cues and just revamped a Stratus

Exactly. Someone in marketing calls 50's people up and says "hey if you want the first Dodge Charger to roll off the assembly line it's yours as long as we can put out a press release talking about it." It's just a publicity generating thing meant to spread a "buzz" about how cool the Charger is.

PS: It's also a way to dispel the image of a Charger as Dukes of Hazzard redneck ride.

I'm pretty sure snoop dog has lotsa money, and i know for a fact that 50 has money. He has a multi million dollar estate in CT and has been seen in Yonkers in his Bentley Continental GT. Also i believe it was last summer, him and his boys went down through the city in ferraris, bentleys, lambos and all kinds of shit.
