WHEELER DEALER

For years Nicolas Cage has collected unique and vintage cars – including Jaguars, Bugattis, Corvettes, Cadillacs, Alfa Romeos, etc. He has bought and sold millions of dollars worth. He says he continually pares down his collection to the cars he drives the most. Recently he read about a 2002 Bentley Continental T limited edition black on black with only $9000 miles on it up for sale. In 2002 the car sold for almost $400,000. (Isn’t this the car Ben Affleck bought for J.Lo?) Anyway, Nic called the seller and introduced himself and asked “Would you bring the car to my house in Newport Beach?” The seller arrived at Nic’s gated home and was greeted by security who sent him up to the house. Nic was just getting out of the pool with his baby and he asked the guy “Have you eaten?” He invited the car owner to join him and his family for pizza freshly made by Cage’s chef. After lunch Nic admired the car and remarked “I like it but I have the think about it.” Ultimately Nic decided against the car but, the seller’s not complaining – he has memories of his pleasant afternoon at Nic’s.

  1. Nick should stick to buying and selling cars,which he’s good at instead of making movies which he’s lousy at. Next movie he’ll burn up is Ghost Rider. Casting agents have gotten really sloppy as of late.
