Do Jay Leno, Tim Allen, Charlie Sheen and Nicolas Cage get premiums for their cars?

[/ QUOTE ]Actually, in a word, yes. A '69 Chevelle SS 396 sold at auction locally, formerly owned by Nicolas Cage, with the paperwork to back it up. It was an original Fathom Green car painted black, with black limo tint windows...seems to be a Nick Cage signature as I've seen his '65 Corvette Coupe with the same treatment. The car did close to 30 grand and wasn't at all anything particularly exciting to look it. Chromed out underhood, aftermarket wheels, radials, trim shop guts, your typical "street machine" Chevelle with NOM. I'd say $10,000 or more was spent on Nick Cage's name. Doesn't make particular sense to me either, but then again there's people who look at screen actors like we look at Don Yenko.
