What a load of BS. The Suburban has one, but the DeLorean does not? What about the Ferrari Testarossa from Miami Vice?

Hollywood walk stars are bought and paid for. Nobody bought one.

I know that you have to make a $50,000 payment to the LA trade commission or something, but I thought there was a little more to it then sponsoring a bench in the park.

Might be a slippery slope there.  Oh, the Suburban gets a star?  How about water gets a star...that's been in over 2,148 films!

Anyways, at least the Hollywood Star of Fame thing gave us Seth McFarlanes's acceptance speech. "It was very difficult for me to get where I am today. The traffic in LA was a bitch, and as I look at previous Star of Fame recipients like Donald Trump, and Bill Cosby, I ask myself 'Do I really deserve to be here?"
