When I was in Orlando last month I saw a convoy of about 5 of them driving down the interstate. It was pretty cool.

Oh and Vince Vaughn's car is definately not crappy.8) The Bronco isn't bad either. I love Regis's new convertible top.images/smilies/lmao.gif

A Fiat 500 is not style? These people know nothing about cars. (Though it is not the Trump brand of style, for sure...)

Some of those cars are not "bad" cars. That Bronco is a classic and it looks like someone put many hours into restoring it.

Anyway, so what if they are driving "normal" cars? I actually think it's refreshing to see a celebrity who is fine with their older car, I mean if it still runs well and they still like it why should they "upgrade" just to keep up appearances? We Americans bitch and moan about spoiled celebrities but then bitch and moan when they drive "normal" cars, as though that knocks them from the high pedestal upon which we place them if for no other reason to make an inviting target for our mud slinging. When they are revealed to be more "normal" than we have made ourselves believe it's not so much fun to sling mud.. and that becomes the mud we sling.

I will never understand the obsession with celebrities, but I will say that I now want an old GMC, because if it's good enough for Clint Eastwood it's good enough for me.

That is just crap most of those cars are cool...

The classic Bronco is way cool...

http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.tmz.com/media/2006/12/jeremy_pivin_car_fame.jpg

The GMC doesn't look like a typhoon and I think all typhoons were black or gray correct???

The VW mini bus is cool too they can be neat cruising rides. I guy I went to HS with had his all tricked out.

-Power heated leather seats in the front covered in custom red leather
-Red shag carpeting for the floor
-ivory carpeting on for the head liner and lower above the belt line red carpeting below the belt line
-rear could be fited with bench seats, a pair of small lounge chairs or bean bags
-Red body with white roof and red and white wheels
He normaly had bean bags in the back and he tended to get a lot of action back there.

He was a cool guy.

Jeremy Piven should steal the 750iL from Entourage if he's that desperate... or one of the three DB9s... or even the Quattroporte.

Probably the flash. Using flash at night sometimes yields some interesting contrasts between the foreground and background.

if i was in their spot, i would surely drive a POS, perfect stealth car. last thing they need is attention everywhere.

as for the fiat, i mean come on, wtf is up with that, i think the person writing this thinks everyone of them should be driving a black 300C with 30" chrome rims or something as monotonous as that. i think almost everyone shown there could get almost any kind of car out there, but whats the point of driving it every day when you cant live normally.
