Power Steering: Who Drives What In Hollywood

In Los Angeles, a car completes the look. It’s the last article of clothing that we put on before heading out, an accessory, like shoes, that is at once intensely personal and a functional necessity. Our cars are meant to telegraph our achievements, our sense of self, even our political and social beliefs — witness all the Teslas in the Netflix lot plastered with “Elon Sucks”-style bumper stickers. But they are also our Wakanda, a protective sanctuary, armoring and enriching us in our voyage between home, work, meetings and social engagements.
