Jeremy Piven
BMW Hydrogen 7
What are the Hollywood A-list driving these days? If you said hybrids you'd be right...in 2006. Over the past two years, BMW has been busy handing out to celebrities the keys to its Hydrogen version of the 7 Series. Will Ferrell got one of the first, Leno had one in his garage a while back, and Jeremy Piven was invited to hop in one too (even though Ari Gold drives a Lexus LS600h on Entourage).

Cadillac CTS
The Cadillac CTS has been a real win for General Motors. Exterior styling is aggressive and refreshing in a somewhat conservative segment, handling puts a smile on your face and confidence in your hands, and the engine is more than enough to get you in trouble. Interior quality and design is among the best GM has put forward, and right now they can be found with great incentives on them as well.

Luxury Fun Fact: Wicked fast CTS-V has a maximum output of 556 horsepower.

Jayde Nicole
Cadillac CTS
We told you the Cadillac CTS was hot when we named it MyRide's "2008 Car of the Year", but don't take it from us, take it from Hugh Hefner. Hugh made sure this year's Playboy Playmate of the Year, Jayde Nicole, took home a brand new Cadillac CTS. To those of you that think Hugh Hefner is tasteless, Hugh Hefner 2, you, 0. To those of you who knew who Jayde Nicole was before this post, ease up a bit on the mags, will ya?

Ferrari (all of them)
We aren't going to try and single out a specific Ferrari here, but the brand is one of the ultimate status symbols among the Hollywood elite. It should be interesting to see how people take to Ferrari's newest model, the California, which will be the first Ferrari to offer a fully-retractable hardtop. Our current favorite in the line-up is the Ferrari 430 Modena.

Luxury Fun Fact: Starting at over $5,000,000, Ferrari will allow you to submit designs for your own custom, one-off Ferrari. They will under no circumstances build you an SUV.

Sylvester Stallone
Ferrari 612 Scaglietti
To everyone who says Sylvester Stallone should quit remaking his old classics (Rocky, Rambo, uh, Over the Top) I have three words for you: Ferrari 612 Scaglietti. And like the last Rocky, the 612 is by far not the prettiest of the franchise, but it's still a Ferrari, and a fat paycheck is still a fat paycheck.

Seal
Ferrari F430 Spyder
Here's one the tabloids missed: While R&B singer Seal is married to German supermodel Heidi Klum, here he's pictured in public with an Italian supermodel instead. We're not one to player hate, so we'll pose this question to the crowd: if you had to take one, which would you choose? Us, we're partial to the German supermodel (that is, the Audi R8, and you can see why here).

Nick Cannon
Ferrari F430
Nick Cannon recently picked up a sick looking Ferrari F430 from Platinum Motorsports in Los Angeles (the color I believe is Deeeeeeeeyam! Red). Maybe this was an "enjoy it while I can" purchase, because rumor has it, Mariah and him are looking to get a bun in the oven, and we're not talking baked goods. Nick, may I suggest purchasing one of these from BabyDirect.com? That, or get on the waiting list for Lamborghini's new sedan, a fun new car the whole family can enjoy!

Jaguar XF
This year we made the 2009 Jaguar XF our pick for "Best New Luxury Car Under $75,000." From its absolutely smooth supercharged engine to its high-quality interior, we quickly came to love the XF. Does it look like a traditional Jaguar? Not really, but that doesn't bother us for a second. It looks great, and that's all that matters. New for 2009 will be a performance variant, the Jaguar XFR.

Luxury Fun Fact: Turning on the XF automatically opens the air vents in a venetian blind-like fashion.

Benji Madden
Jaguar XF
Girls aren't the only ones to console themselves with shopping. Right around the time Benji and Paris Hilton took a bus to Splits-tonistan and ended their relationship, Benji went out and bought this customized Jaguar XF pictured here. We haven't seen many celebrities rocking the Jaguar XF, so big respect to Benji for the forward thinking.

Mercedes-Benz S-Class
The S-Class is a staple in the luxury car market. Similar to the BMW 7 Series, it's all about providing the pinnacle of luxurious comfort packed with the latest technology Mercedes-Benz has to offer. Like the 7 Series, the S-Class is just as enjoyable in the driver's seat as it is in the back seat.

Luxury Fun Fact: The name "S-Class" is derived from the German word "Sonderklasse", which means "special class" or "in a class of its own."

Evel Knievel
Mercedes-Benz S600
After he hung up the two-wheeler, Evel Knievel was riding in the comfort of a Mercedes-Benz S600. And why wouldn't he? If you'd broken forty bones in your body you'd roll the Big Benz too (last time I checked, the new S600 comes with Drive-Dynamic multicontour 14-way power-adjustable 3-position memory front seats with 4-levels of massage). I wonder if the thought ever crossed his mind to jump the thing? There isn't much you couldn't launch with a V-12 and 590 ft-lbs of torque.

Celine Dion
Mercedes-Benz S550
The way people are gravitating towards this Mercedes-Benz S-Class, you'd think the sunroof's purpose was to let the sun out of the car. I knew Celine Dion was popular; hell, after hockey, beer, and humorous fodder, she is Canada's biggest export. But this is crazy. Good luck to Stephen Harper if she ever decides to run for Prime Minister.

George Clooney
Mercedes-Benz S550
Why do women love George Clooney? I don't know, could it have something to do with the fact that he can arrange an S-Class on the tarmac of a private airstrip in the Basse-Normandie region of France by clapping his hands? And to think we feel like we're getting it hooked up when we find a discount coupon online for the LAX Park & Fly.

Saab 9-3 Convertible
Often overlooked, the Saab 9-3 Convertible offers a fairly luxurious open-air experience at a reasonable price. We're partial to the other Swedish convertible, the Volvo C70, for its folding hardtop, but there are probably many good deals to be had on Saabs right now. The base engine on the 9-3 gets a respectable 27 mpg on the highway.

Luxury Fun Fact: Routes the cold air supplied by the climate system to keep the glove box around 45 degrees for storing drinks, like Dugges Ale och Porterbryggeri's Avenyn Ale, our favorite Swedish beer.

Jennifer Love Hewitt
Saab 9-3 Convertible
I don't know why Jennifer Love Hewitt is hiding behind her purse. She should be proud to drive a Saab which has a long history in Hollywood. Jay Leno has a 1958 Saab Model 93-B, Ally McBeal was a long time Saab 9-5 driver, and who can forget Jerry's Saab 900 Cabrio on Seinfeld? Put the bag down and celebrate your newfound Swedish heritage!

Not a celebrity? Don't worry, lease!
Our Top 10 list of vehicles people lease makes it pretty clear you don't have to be a celebrity to own a luxury car.
