Especially knowing what the main man from the Vatican takes out on parade days, we're interested to know what luxe ride you'd like to be taking down 1st Avenue in New York today. If you were the Pope, and rocking the white robes, what car would you prefer to be driven in? Would it be the bubble-top Popemobile of old, something more German military industrial complex, or something else?

That's right, we were able to witness his New York vehicle of choice firsthand from the 14th floor of Tudor City, right across from the front door of the United Nations. And although we're unsure the Pope knows he shut down the entire East side of Manhattan including all of 1st Avenue, one thing the Pope apparently does know is that the only way to travel — is Cadillac Style. That's right, Cadillac, Cadillac, Cadillac Style.

And yes, that white blotch is in fact, Pope Benedict XVI.
