Celebrity rides

The LA Auto Show gets some car-loving celebs out to visit, so it's quite timely that MSNBC has done a feature on the sweet cars some celebs like Shaq and Missy Elliott drive -- and what they do to make those cars even better. Stephon Marbury of the New York Knicks worked with Star Motoring to build the Viant SLV 365, a Cadillac Escalade with a Rolls Royce Phantom front end. The interior is decked out with enough gadgets to make a tech junkie cry tears of happiness, and even includes an in-car movie theater. Shaq likes his cars with expensive wheels -- more than one car has a set on them that cost more than a Chrysler 300.

Next time I see Missy I'll be sure to ask her if I can take a spin in her Aston Martin V12 Vanquish.
