Detroit could probably use another Eminem boost following Tuesday's news that it lost 25% of its residents from 2000 to 2010.

You may remember the catchy Chrysler ad during January's Super Bowl.

The spot ends with "Imported From Detroit," a message that may have a new meaning, given the latest census numbers.
