3.4 million people voted in this years E Bay Motors People Picks and they unanimously decided Nicolas Cage’s 1967 Shelby Mustang "Eleanor" from GISS wins Best Movie Car! That is quite an accolade when you consider all the awesome cars in movies!!!
there are some yummy cars in Drive Angry, loved the matt black charger and the cherry red corvelle, but mabe we didnt get to know them s well as we did Eleanor, who was in was, in a way, one of the main characters in GISS!
Would it be safe to say a few of us are very fond of this car too?!
AH! :) Yes, the classical 1934/35 Rolls Royce "Phantom" with the "Merlin"-engine! Such a sweet and magNICal Car! Nic said once in an interview, that he owned one himself, but he sold it. Thanks for posting it, Lula.

Nic simply loves his cars. And he loves to drive. So, I think, it`s totally natural, that cars are playing such a huge role in so many of his movies. So, evidently, we see him driving in those movies, or have car-chase-sequences in it. He is really a very good driver, and he has taste! :)

Absolutely, Nic has shared his passion for cars and driving in many an interview!
There are so many car chase and action scenes in Nic movies, many of which he does hmself! It seems he also has some say in the kinds of cars his characters drive too! Anyone remember the Leaving Las Vegas car story?
