The cars of the stars: Michelle Rodriguez

The Cars of the Stars
Michelle Rodriguez
Toyota Prius


Michelle Rodriguez: The "Fast & Furious" star slows down when she gets behind the wheel of her own car. "I drive a Prius for eco-friendly reasons, even though in educated fields of science, they would fight the idea of it being really eco-friendly when you discard it. ... The battery will be leaking toxic copper for the next 10 years. I found that out after I purchased the vehicle. I guess you can have a Hummer or truck as long as you don't drive that much. I just don't go to that many places, but drive a Prius when I do."
