Jeremy Piven (Ari Gold)
Thirtysomething — err, now on the dark side of 40 — agent Ari Gold is a scene-chewing freak. As expertly and vaingloriously played by actor Jeremy Piven, Gold owns almost every frame of the series in which he appears (view the Top 10 Vehicles from Entourage slideshow).

The same can't quite be said for the two vehicles Gold’s driven during the three seasons of Entourage. Not that it’s so bad — the vehicular uniform of an agent differs from that of an actor. Think Armani, not True Religion.

In season one, Gold’s Entourage mobile was a black 2005 BMW 745. Another tone-accurate L.A. moment: Gold in the BMW, simultaneously driving, reading a screenplay and talking on his cell phone.

He then switched to a silver 2006 Mercedes-Benz S-Class. In one episode he was streaking northbound on the Pacific Coast Highway. The apropos classic rock song that was blaring: "Sympathy for the Devil." After a failed palace coup and the restoration of his agency's founder, Gold found himself out of work and out of his company car.
