You’ve no doubt heard by now about the U.S. indictment against the owners of the popular file-sharing site MegaUpload, which was shut down by feds on Thursday and which triggered a massive cyber-attack from Anonymous on a number of government websites including the FBI and the U.S. Department of Justice.
Today we also learn that the police seized a number of assets from the founder of MegaUpload, Kim Schmitz, aka Kimble, aka Kim Dotcom, including an amazing collection of automobiles with some rib-tickling license plates from his estate in New Zealand.
Twitter user Elliot Kamber was on hand to take a few shots of the cars that were seized, while we’ve also added a video after the break.
Among the vehicles taken from Schmitz’s garage were a 2005 Mercedes-Benz CLK DTM with “Good” number plates, a 2010 Mercedes-Benz S65 AMG with a “CEO” plate, a pink 1959 Cadillac Series 62 Convertible, a 1989 Lamborghini LM002 and a 2010 Maserati GranCabrio. The cars are estimated to be worth over $6 million.
You can take a look at the complete list of the cars below while the complete federal indictment is available online here.
