Even though celebrities are most often seen leaving limos to walk up the red carpet, many love to drive -- not to mention loving what they drive.

Slideshow: What Cars Are Celebrities Driving?

Not everyone is Jay Leno -- owner of more than 75 vehicles, motorcycles and steam engines, according to the Web site Jay Leno's Garage.

The Web site Ridelust.com listed some big-name celebrities with some of the cars they tool around town in.

Many opt for environmentally friendly vehicles. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie drove to the 2007 premier of "Ocean's 13" in a BMW H7, the German automaker's hydrogen-powered luxury vehicle. Pitt's "Ocean's 13" co-star George Clooney took delivery of the first Tango T600, an electric, two-seater car.

Many celebrities are said to drive a Toyota Prius hybrid, including Julia Roberts, Leonardo DiCaprio, Kirsten Dunst and Ryan Gosling.

Others opt for high-end power and speed. Aston Martin cars, including the DB7, DB9 and Vanquish, are favored by the likes of Ryan Seacrest, Pierce Brosnan, Ben Affleck, Missy Elliot, Janet Jackson, Marc Anthony and Jennifer Lopez.

Seacrest's "American Idol" colleague Simon Cowell is a driver of the most expensive production car on the road -- the $1.2 million, 1,000-horsepower Bugatti Veyron.
