Malcolm in the Middle Loves His Pontiac Vibe!

Post by Fast Eddie »

An article in March 12th Toronto Star on Frankie Muniz star of the newly released move Agent Cody Banks, but more widely known as the star of Malcolm in the Middle TV show, says the 5'3" star loves his Pontiac Vibe over many of the high end cars he owns.Actually, the 5-foot-3 actor would be much happier zipping down the 405 freeway in his black 1956 Porsche Speedster. A passionate driver and collector of cars (he's gone through nine so far), Muniz logged close to 100,000 miles last year — mostly in his 2003 Pontiac Vibe and horizon blue 2002 Cadillac Escalade."I'm the only one with that custom paint job," he reveals, sprawling out on a sofa at the Four Seasons hotel. "It turns from sky blue to silver to purple, depending on how you see it in the sun."Muniz is also the proud owner of the white Volkswagen Jetta Vin Diesel drove in The Fast And The Furious. He has souped it up to include Playstation II, DVD and VCR players, a computerized navigation system and multiple video cameras.

(DOn't picture this you might get grossed out or somthing like that) Besides how the hell does a kid that young 100,000 miles in a year. That is an accident waiting to happen. Watch out LA Malcolm is gonna be parked in the middle of your rig very soon. The statisitcs are in my favor anyone wanna make a prop bet?

I actually like my Vibe better than my Porsche Speedster and Cadillac Escalade too!

Isn't life funny. Those of us that are under 6' want to be taller and then you have a 17 year old that is a millionare but barely breaks 5'3". That's life, you can be 6' and poor or 5'3" and loaded.
