Dana White's custom Ferrari just got its ass kicked by something with a total disregard for the well-being of a beautiful automobile
-- a Hyundai rent-a-car.
The UFC kingpin tells TMZ he was changing lanes while cruising through Las Vegas Wednesday afternoon when a "Hyundai rent-a-car" suddenly stopped in front of him -- and Dana smashed into the back of it.
White said his beloved car -- which he had only driven 3 times before the crash -- took the brunt of the blast ... while the Hyundai only suffered a few minor scratches.
As for Dana's condition, he tells us, "I'm fine ... but my heart is broken."

We didn't really know what a Kimi Räikkönen is -- or how the hell to pronounce that last name -- but apparently he's a Formula One driver we happened to shoot in London yesterday ... and he's loaded beyond belief!!!
The speed racer raked in $44 million last year and is the 4th highest paid sportsman on the planet -- but the exuberance doesn't stop there.
Also worth millions: That sweet, white, old school Ferrari California parked in front of Kimi's sweet, metallic, new school Ferrari.

Nic Cage has another hit on his hands but this time the people suffering aren't in the audience -- because a car crash on the set of his latest film took out two bystanders last night in Times Square!
The wild set footage from NYPost.com shows a Ferrari weaving through traffic -- but the car skids on the wet pavement, careens into the sidewalk and hits someone walking by. The crash also takes down a lamp post -- which falls on another victim.
According to the Post, both people were taken to the hospital and their injuries do not appear life threatening.

Fabio Lanzoni says he's doing "great" --- even if the Ferrari he crashed last weekend isn't.
The "Not Butter" pitchman was at Cafe Med last night, where he once again blamed brake failure for the smash up of World Class Driving's pricey ride. WCD says brakes were not the issue -- but that's Fabio's story and he's stickin' to it.

Fabio's "failed brakes" excuse didn't cut it with the owners of the Ferrari he crashed this weekend -- because they just released a statement saying the car wasn't to blame for the accident.
World Class Driving's statement: "After preliminary investigation, World Class Driving found the car was in excellent working condition prior to the incident and that brake failure was not an issue."
And to make matters more interesting, WCD also said: "The car in question also has computer data logging that is in the process of being checked to determine what caused the incident."

TMZ has confirmed the owner of the TapouT MMA clothing line died this morning when his ultra-rare $300,000 Ferrari crashed into a light pole, ripping the car in half.
TMZ has learned Charles Lewis Jr. -- aka "Mask" -- was driving his Ferrari Modena in Orange County, Calif. around 1:00 AM this morning when cops say it "left the roadway, hit the curb, took out a light pole."
"Mask" was declared dead at the scene. A female passenger -- who was ejected from the crash -- was taken to a local hospital, but we're told she's in bad shape.
Cops believe "Mask" was racing a guy in a Porsche at the time of the crash, and authorities have since arrested the guy they believe was driving the other car. That man -- Jeffrey David Kirby -- is being held on suspicion of gross vehicular manslaughter.
UPDATE: A rep for TapouT released this statement: "It is with heavy hearts and great sadness that we must regretfully confirm the passing of our beloved friend, brother and co-founder Charles "Mask" Lewis following a car accident that occurred last night. We are currently in the process of setting up a memorial service in his honor and will release more details as they become available. Many thanks to all for the outpouring of blessings and well-wishes during this incredibly difficult time."

Letting Kim Kardashian drive your $200,000 Ferrari is either true love or truly stupid.
That's what Reggie Bush did outside My House (the club), and Kim's skill behind the wheel was debatable, at best.
The car alarm sounded when Kim got in the driver's seat. Warning sign? We're just sayin'.

Ever the pimped-out daddy, Kevin Federline was spotted in Malibu yesterday driving around in his silver Ferrari and wearing a t-shirt that said "Federline Records." Oh dear lord, he's not making another album, is he?
That same Ferrari partly fueled the K-Fed and Britney divorce rumors last year, when Brit reportedly had the car returned to the dealer. But he ended up keeping the car, and -- who'd have thunk it? -- his dignity, too.
Fed-Ex has been caring for his two sons while Britney's in rehab. And that's how he rolls.

It's said that men buy sportscars to compensate for another, er, shortcoming. We know from a memorable video that's not the case with tatted-up rocker Tommy Lee.
The legendary Motley Crue drummer hit up the Claus Ettensberger Showroom in West Los Angeles on Friday, trying to decide between a $750,000 Porsche and a $320,000 Ferrari. It's hard to find a bargain in the city.
The Ferrari is a Novitec model and is one of only four of its kind in the U.S., and the Porsche can reach speeds up to 240mph. Perhaps Tommy Lee should do a reality show and let America decide which car he should buy -- "Rock Star: Supercharger!"

It's almost funny to see K-Fed pump gas into his Ferrari. Especially when you think that had it not been for Britney, he would probably still be pumping gas, but it's more likely that it would be into other people's cars.
K-Fed has made it clear to the media that he is working on on his rap career and would like to be thought of separately from Britney when it comes to his music. However, he still had his wife record a track for his new CD and has had the Princess of Pop work every possible angle to help peddle his album.
Still, as much as he would like to separate himself from Brit, he has no problem keeping tight with her cash.

Dad/manager Joe Simpson was out cruising the town when his evening came to a sudden halt ... by a railing!
Joe was about to drive off in his Ferrari in Beverly Hills Saturday night after leaving Ken Paves' salon when he ran into the railing from a staircase. He looked over his shoulder in disbelief and embarrassment. Instead of stopping to look at the damage (like any proud man), he drove away before anyone else noticed.
The valet attendants were probably thanking their lucky stars that they didn't do it!
