A large car collection is up for auction

At the beginning of the year, YouTuber Omi in a Hellcat (Bill Omar Carrasquillo) was sentenced to 66 months in prison for illegally selling content hijacked from cable boxes. He and his accomplices earned 30 million dollars (or about 28.6 million euros) from this illegal activity. Now, he has to pay cable operators $10.7 million (€10.2 million), the IRS $5 million (€4.7 million), and will lose his car collection.

“I really didn’t know the significance of this crime until I was picked up at my home. I feel like I let everybody down,” said Bill Omar Carrasquillo.

His car collection is offered for sale and consists of a total of 32 cars, as well as several quads, motorcycles and other vehicles. Among them are two copies of the Jeep Grand Cherokee Trackhawk, Dodge Challenger and Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat, Dodge Durango SRT, four Lamborghinis, two Ford Mustangs, Audi R8, Acura NSX, Bentley Continental GT, BMW M8, Toyota Supra, Honda Civic Type R and others. The star of the auction is the 2019 Lamborghini Aventador LP740-4S, which is adorned with a foil with a Power Rangers design.

“Thirty million dollars is a lot of money, tangible objects aren’t everything. You have a large following and there may be people who think if you can get away with it, they can too,” said U.S. District Judge Harvey Bartle III.

Mansory Vitesse based on the Bentley Continental GT

Mansory is one of the best, if not the best, tuner in the world, from whose workshop exciting cars come out. This time it’s the Mansory Vitesse that paid homage to the 2009 Vitesse Rose based on the 2009 Continental GT Speed.

The car is based on the model Continental GT and finished in a combination of yellow and black. It is equipped with a forged carbon package that includes a new front grille with a forged carbon fiber splitter, new wraps around the front air intakes, side skirts, new mirrors and a set of black Mansory wheels with yellow accents. There’s also a fixed rear wing, blacked-out badges, a diffuser and new quad tailpipes.

Inside, the driver’s seat is upholstered in yellow leather, while the passenger seat is upholstered in black leather with contrasting yellow/black seat belts. The rear seats are in the same combination, with the door panels covered in yellow leather. The steering wheel is wrapped in yellow leather. The center console is decorated with a Mansory Vitesse plate with the inscription “One of One”.

When it comes to the powertrain, Mansory hasn’t revealed much. It is not known whether this car is powered by the 6.0L W12 or the 4.0L V8 engine. The only thing known is that the Vitesse has 739 hp (544 kW) and 752 lb-ft (1,020 Nm) of torque, which is enough to propel the car to 62 mph in 3.3 seconds with a top speed of 206 mph (332 km/h).

Some may be surprised by this design, but we have already seen something similar with the “Algorithmic Fade” based on the Mercedes-AMG G63.

Mo Salah’s car collection

One of Liverpool’s best, but also the most expensive players has unveiled a new car in his collection worth £ 370,000 (around £ 160,000 at the time of purchase). Mo Salah’s car collection is richer for the Bentley Continental GT which is a favorite among Premier League players, after the Range Rover Sport SVR.

Like Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Salah drives a Lamborghini Aventador. It is the most expensive car in the collection of the Egyptian and it costs £ 271,000. Salah is also a big fan of Mercedes. In his garage you can find the AMG GLE Coupe (£ 65,000) as well as the SLS AMG Roadster (£ 176,000).

When he started his career, Salah bought a Toyota Camry and set aside £ 29,000 for it. It was the vehicle with which he began to “create” an expensive garage, reports The Sun.

Another vehicle Salah uses is the Audi Q7 that Salah bought after returning from England to England, in a Liverpool jersey. It costs him around £ 54,000.
