This Mercedes isn't mine but I feel like I've seen enough Nicholas Cage movies where I could be affiliated.

You could drive this national treasure to the challenge!

"I'm sure is worth alot more since it was owned by a celebrity."

LOL! It's a used 190E and calling Nick Cage a celebrity is a bit of a stretch. Some of his recent work, which you can find in the bowels of Netflix or the $1.99 DVD bin at Wal Mart.

I don't think so. Everybody knows who he is, that makes him a celebrity. Calling him a great actor would be a stretch, or maybe an outright fabrication.

Joe was pretty decent actually.

I have some dirty, evil, wonderful, absurd, blasphemous ideas regarding 190Es and boosted straight sixes...

Definitely. 86% on Rotten Tomatoes.

I'm sure the rest of those movies are crap though.

Nicolas Cage hit his movie peak with Valley Girl. It was all downhill from there.

Wait, maybe that was Nicolas Coppola. Sorry about that, carry on.

I remember liking Bringing Out the Dead. I think he CAN act, but for whatever reason has chosen a lot of bad projects.

Pay The Ghost was pretty decent actually. For the type of movie at least.

Come on guys, you are being a little harsh on Nicolas Cage. I know he made a lot of movies, and some of the newer ones are pretty crappy. But he did win an Oscar for Best Actor in Leaving Las Vegas. Plus he has done a lot of other really good stuff including Adaptation, Wild at Heart, Kickass, etc.

On top of that he is a car guy too. Here is his Miura:

and he has had a lot of other cool cars (including this Bugatti), mostly before his IRS troubles.

He's done good movies, he's done bad movies. He's really just done a E36 M3load movies. But he pretty much always plays the same character, right, or is it just me?

This 1000 times. Any set, any costume, any character, same acting. Not my favorite, not my least favorite.

Seems like a good deal if it is as described. No love for faceoff or con air?
