Automotive Discussion - Autopten Forum -------------------------------------- Cars Seized to MegaUpload owner, Kim Dotcom ================================================================================ Author: ChevyMAN[01-24-2012 05:14pm] Title: Cars Seized to MegaUpload owner, Kim Dotcom ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ After the arrest of Kim Schmitz (Kim Dotcom) in recent days and the closing of its Web site Megaupload, the list of the many cars seized by the FBI has come to light. Check the pictures at the end of this article. Something I can be sure of is that the owner of MegaUpload, a portal that allows users to share files, in most cases violating automotive copyright laws, is a big fan of Mercedes-Benz, particularly of the sports division AMG. Among the 24 cars seized, 14 are from the German house, with some MINI, Maserati, Lamborghini, and Rolls-Royce to vary things a bit, even a couple of classic Cadillacs are on the list.

All are custom numbers that give some personality to each car. Kim Schmitz faces a sentence of 50 years in prison and we have to wait to see what will happen with all these cars and the rest of his properties. If they are auctioned, there are several babies in this list that could be sold for money, as in the case of the Mercedes CLK DTM AMG. Well, this is the complete list of cars confiscated from Kim Dotcom by the FBI during the closing operation of MegaUpload: :g_arrow:2011 Mercedes-Benz G55 AMG / car plate: /POLICE :g_arrow:2011 Mercedes-Benz ML63 :g_arrow:2011 Toyota Hilux / car plate: FSN455 :g_arrow:2010 Maserati GranCabrio / car plate: M-FB 212 :g_arrow:2010 Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG L / car plate: CEO :g_arrow:2010 Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG / car plate: STONED :g_arrow:2010 Mini Cooper S Coupe / car plate: V :g_arrow:2010 Mercedes-Benz ML63 AMG / car plate: GUILTY :g_arrow:2010 Toyota Vellfire / car plate: WOW :g_arrow:2010 Mini Cooper S Coupe / car plate: T :g_arrow:2010 Sea-Doo GTX Jet Ski :g_arrow:2010 Mercedes-Benz CL63 AMG / car plate: HACKER :g_arrow:2009 Mercedes-Benz ML63 AMG / car plate: MAFIA :g_arrow:2009 Mercedes-Benz E500 Coupe / car plate: FEG690 :g_arrow:2008 Rolls-Royce Phantom Drop Head Coupe / car plate: GOD :g_arrow:2007 Mercedes-Benz CL65 AMG / car plate: KIMCOM :g_arrow:2006 Mercedes-Benz CLK DTM :g_arrow:2005 Mercedes-Benz CLK DTM / car plate: GOOD :g_arrow:2005 Mercedes-Benz A170 / car plate: FUR252 :g_arrow:2005 Mercedes-Benz ML500 / car plate: DFF816 :g_arrow:2004 Mercedes-Benz CLK DTM AMG 5.5L Kompressor / car plate: EVIL :g_arrow:1989 Lamborghini LM002 / car plate: FRP358 :g_arrow:1959 Cadillac Series 62 Convertible :g_arrow:1957 Cadillac El Dorado :g_arrow:Von Dutch Kustom Motor Bike :g_arrow:Harley Davidson Motorcycle / car plate: 36YED I'll try to post sample images of each of these cars later on.

ChevyMAN ================================================================================ Author: Angel[01-30-2012 05:32am] Title: Cars seized to MegaUpload owner, Kim Dotcom ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This DotCom guy is completely insane living his own Hollywood movie. It is sad to see how lose the notion of reality the people who suddenly start to make money. If the owner of MegaUpload had kept a low profile, probably would not have been wanted by the FBI, just look at his licence plates, GOD, MAFIA, WANTED, etc... he was too obvious. What is true is that Kim Schmitz has very good taste to buy cars. I hope he get smarter in jail and buy cheaper cars when he get free. ================================================================================ Author: VWguyVW[02-14-2012 09:15am] Title: Cars seized to MegaUpload owner, Kim Dotcom ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Would you really like to know what kind of person is somebody? Just give him some money, says the proverb. What is the reason of having a lot of money and living "forever alone"? I don't think this guy Kim Dotcom had many real friends. The most probably his "friends" only wanted to drive his luxury cars, now he doesn't have them, they just will have gone to find another pig. Gigiti Gigiti Gigiti Gigiti Gu!!! ================================================================================ Author: HoneyGirl[02-22-2012 04:02am] Title: Cars seized to MegaUpload owner, Kim Dotcom ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hey everyone, I just read that MegaUpload's founder, Kim Dotcom, was released on bail. in New Zealand after his lawyers appealed the decision that kept him in jail since his arrest. The judge found that the risk of escaping from prison is not enough to grant him no freedom until the hearing is held to lay out the charges against him. Kim Dotcom, of German citizenship, faces possible extradition to the United States for crimes of piracy and copyright infringement, in addition to charges of conspiracy to commit racketeering and money laundering. Just a reminder. Dotcom and three of his associates were arrested a month ago, but he was the last one to which was given the option to go free on bail. :awesomework: [img]/pics/kim-dotcom-megaupload-released-on-bail-2.jpg[/img] [img]/pics/kim-dotcom-megaupload-released-on-bail-1.jpg[/img] Pictures of Kim Dotcom, Megaupload.com owner being released :) "When girls go wild, they show their tits. When women go wild, they kill men and drown their kids in a tub." ;D ================================================================================ Author: PLUR[02-29-2012 05:32am] Title: Cars seized to MegaUpload owner, Kim Dotcom ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I just read that Kim Dotcom, Megaupload founder, is asking for more than $184,000 a month to the High Court in Auckland to live and cover their expenses. Crazy good life lover guy eh? : 8): Kim Schmitz or also known as Dotcom, who will know today if the court maintains or revoke the parole granted last week, and his wife Mona want to get the money from the assets and accounts that were confiscated after his arrest in January. This money, in case of be granted by the court, would cover the salaries of bodyguards, butlers, tutors for one of the sons of Dotcom and expenses of his wife Mona, who is pregnant with twins, according to TVNZ television channel of New Zealand. Furthermore, today was revealed that the U.S. authorities are investigating the Dotcom wife, Mona Schmitz, under this operation against hacking, according to TVNZ. :icon_e2_smoker: I hope Kim Dotcom achieve the liberty, he can be a bit eccentric, but also helped and made many people happy with the service provided by Megaupload. : (: ================================================================================
