    First, I am certain that most of you will get a kick out of this. And I know that I'm opening myself to an onslaught of amusing replies (and embarrassment) amongst my piers here in Ferrarichat. But nothing ventured, nothing gained...

    Nic,

    You live about a mile from me in your new OC digs. We know some of the same people, but professional etiquette precludes me from going that route. Hey, I almost bought your black spyder (and know you're partial to 6-speeds).

    None-the-less, I would like to speak/meet with you to discuss some related interests (no, nothing to do with Hollywood).

    That being said, feel free to contact me.

    I'm sure I'll recieve at least a dozen responses, I'm hoping that one may actually be you.

    -Lou

    Whats the BS/problem/deal about "professional etiquette?" Don't get it.

    Nick seems like he's a real car guy...car guys like to talk cars... with other car guys.

    See him on the street/road/beach.... wave, flag him down, start a conversation about cars. It's kind of like meeting a girl...walk up and do it, don't beat around the bush!

    Never really met any Hollywood stars (Jodie Foster's brother =), mostly sports stars...but overall the one thing they value is being treated like a regular person. Maybe hollywood stars have different rules.

    Meister,

    I do know a lot of celebrities. And you are correct, many of them are just regular people (especially the car guys). I happen to know Nic is down to earth.

    However, as far as the "etiquette" part comes into play, I am involved with some business transactions that involve him and I don't think it would be fair to my clients to mix business with pleasure.

    That being said, should I see him on the street, I have no problem introducing myself on a car guy basis.

    I actually enjoyed that!

    Really not certain what cars he has at this moment. Lots of rumors. I'll tell him you said Hi and asked!

    Be sure to use a spring line amongst your piers, or the damage to your boat will be embarrassing. ;)

    (He and his peers peered at the pier. It was par. :p)

    I'm also a fan of Nic Cage, and his cars. How do we know that he is on F-chat?

    Hey, I pinched Burt's ass (Burt Renolds in "Gator" - filmed in my town). I think Cage is way sexy & especially love his walk. Go for it.

    Id love to have Nick Cage on board.

    I love his movies and his cars. And that pic of him with his hat and the enzo is the new Mcqueen cool.

    I don't know Nick Cage, but I heard he's a great guy.
    My brother-in-law works in the film industry and has had the opportunity to meet him. My wife, (now Ex-wife), is a huge Nick Cage fan. While he was working on a movie, he took time out to personally autograph a 8x10 glossy photo for my wife. My brother-in-law said he was real nice about it and it was a pleasure working with him.
    I'd like to meet Nick too. I've always thought it would be great if he could attend our car show. We really should send him a guest invitation.......

    Nick Cage has had some awesome movies. He's one of my favorite actors and on my "top 5 guys I'd like to have a beer with" list.

    yes i think the same than Andrew Mac queen cool is the right definition.

    there s many years in France in a news paper there was an article about
    Nicolas Cage, he was seating inside an Espada Lamborghini and the picture
    black & white was much something beautifull that a ever seen.

    shame i never do the scan of this pic if someone got it please give us.
