Cage's "$100K Porsche"

Just saw Nicholas Cage's black Speedster being fished out of a lake. It was stolen. When the thieves saw the name on the registration they decided it was "too hot". Newswoman called it a "$100,000 collector Porsche".

A sad sight indeed to see such a nice car so mangled.

Geez, that bites.

BTW I've heard that Cage keeps a hanger over at the Santa Monica airport too, not very far from Seinfeld's. I think Cage has more eclectic taste, i.e. some American, BMW's, and whatever.

CBS in Chicago stated that the car had only 100 miles on it. Gimme a break. What good is a car like that? Oh well, ain't worth diddly @#$%& now! I'll take the Fuchs, please.

Portland Oregon, 11:00 news last night, reported the car to be worth $100,000, said it had 100 miles on it, and "Jeff Jerk-off", the local anchor reported it to be the rare "sportster" model. Laughed my rear off over that one.

Hey, Paul! Recon H-D has started making a 'Speedster?' Well, they both were AIR-COOLED, right?

Hard to keep the facts straight when spending all that time worrying about and checking the hair & makeup in a mirror!

Yes Warren, these folks can be good for a chuckle...coifed and primped airheads with fat "personality" contracts. But they can anger as well. Our small town suffered a loss over the weekend. 4 local teens killed in a head-on with a drunk driver. Of course, the big city reporterettes all had to flock down here to feed off the tragic happening. Made me want to throw a brick through the tube.
