Volt brings out the Hollywood fanatics

Volt's California tour stops by Hollywood

GM's Chevy Volt is finishing off its tour of California, and it stopped by the Chinese Mann's Theater in Hollywood last night. While the hand prints of stars like Marilyn Monroe seemed to shock more of the tourists than did the Volt, a number of Volt crazies also showed up.

"What do you think of this little beauty," some guy asked me as I shot a picture of the Volt.

"It's cool."

"No," he responded. "It's better than cool. Do you get the technology behind this car? I mean, do you understand how this car works?"

Turns out the man and a couple of his engineering friends drove down from Burbank just to have a look at the car, and they weren't the only ones. While the Volt might have looked just like another car to most of the tourists on Hollywood Blvd, to the car fans that came by, the Volt might as well have been the Holy Grail.
