I thought this was an interesting idea to get some discussion going here. I'm not sure if I agree with all of the cars, but some are pretty good.
Quote » Last month when bored, we decided to determine the cars some random celebrities drive. This month, we're bored again and wondering what cars these 21 dead celebrities would drive if they were alive today. This weekend was a cold one here in the Midwest so instead of going out and braving the weather we decided to hibernate instead, but not before heading out to our local cult video store and grabbing a couple of our all-time favorite classic movies. We got a couple of goodies including: Le Mans, The Great Escape and couple of our significant other's favorite Agatha Christie mystery TV episodes featuring the quirky detective, Hercule Poirot.
After watching a couple of these films we got to thinking about what some of these famous actors would be like if they were celebrities in today's day and age. We contemplated this for a while (mostly while suffering through Agatha Christie's, The Mysterious Affair at Styles) and got to thinking about what some of these celebrities would drive. So, thanks in part to both our boredom and ADHD, we've come up with the list below featuring some of our favorite classic celebrities and what we think they would drive if they were alive today.

1. Frank Sinatra would not drive a rocket car.2. John Wayne would drive a Cummins diesel Ram over some wannabe tough-guy edition Ford.
3. Agree with above poster about James Dean.
This list is mostly fail.

That was just a rumor.

If dead celebs were alive today, they'd most likely be zombies.

I'd see McQueen in a Zonda. Bob Ross + Prius is perfect. Hepburn in an SLR, no. Maybe a V8 Vantage...

isn't that a bit too pimped out for John Wayne?
I'm gonna have to disagree with you on this one, and go with Jalopnik's pick.
