Hilary Duff's expectations were low when her hockey player boyfriend, Mike Comrie, called recently to say he'd picked out an early 20th birthday present for her and that "I hope you like them." "Okay, it's shoes or something," Duff recalled thinking as she went to her sister's house, where Comrie said he'd left the present in the garage. "I opened the garage, and I was just like shocked, just standing there." Before her, with a big red bow on top, was a Mercedes-Benz G-class SUV (retails price: more than $100,000). Duff, whose birthday is next week, explained that she had unwittingly put the idea for a new car in his head. "I was planning on getting a big car and I drive a big car anyway, and I was just like, 'You know maybe I like the G-Wagen,' and then I was like, 'No, maybe I like the [Porsche] Cayenne,'" said Duff. "I've driven it tons. When I called him I was like, 'You're crazy! It's perfect!'"
