Today 11 Supercars that belonged to Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo, president of Equatorial Guinea, have been seized in Paris by the French National Police. Among the cars seized by the French police were two Bugatti Veyrons, a Maserati MC12, a Porsche Carrera GT, a Ferrari Enzo and a Ferrari 599 GTO. The supercars were seized at Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo’s Parisian residence at 42 Avenue Foch, just a stones throw away from the Arc de Triomphe.

Vancouver's got nothing on these cars man.
what our popo seized in surrey are like corollas in comparison to these bad boys (except a few of the cars)

but hey... the difference is... they werent racing

hpw912 09-29-2011 08:58 AM

wow!!!.......the cars that got impound here were nothing compare to those in europe!

hey! at least i dont see any "N" behind the bugatti :troll:

+1, the "supercars" in Surrey where toys compared to these. One of the Veyrons is worth the value of all surrey cars combined.

2 Veyrons, a RR Drophead, a CGT, an Enzo and an MC12 (one of 50 ever made)?

The president of Equatorial Guinea is ballin outta control.

Gumby 09-29-2011 09:21 AM

Oh wow... :D

I wonder what it's like to be corrupt as fuck, but not give a shit cuz you wipe your ass with benjamins!

The cars were only seized because the President of Equatorial Guinea is black and the white europeans are jealous. Just like in Surrey, with white westerners seizing asians' cars.

Hypercars. not supercars.

This was not because of street racing tho,

its stupid to make them forfeit their cars on just street racing....

The public forfeiture act would work if these kids bought the car with drug money...

Seizing the cars from the kids are stupid... you know what will teach them a lesson?

Take away their license if they have enough evidence... thats worst than taking their cars since they have the money to buy it again.

he's comparing the fact that it happened in both countries...nothing to do with comparing "SURREY" to "FRANCE"

Phozy 09-29-2011 08:08 PM

I was joking man, playing the jealous/race card as the only possible explanation like the kids did in Surrey. There's already been a 25+ page discussion on that ridiculous issue, lets not go into that again and just enjoy the automotive porn instead.

You know somethin' ain't on the up and up when the President of Equatorial Guinea is ballin' like that.

StylinRed 09-30-2011 12:04 PM

^^ lol well equatorial guinea is balling out of control with their oil

the UK plotted a Coup attempt against the govt. so that they could gain control of the oil (margaret thatchers son was leading the plot) but it backfired this was like 2005ish and what happened when it came to light? Sir Mark Thatcher got a fine :lol (265,000GBP)

clee0302 09-30-2011 12:08 PM

those are some sexy cars, way better than the ones here. A trend people are starting? What's next Hong kong?

FerrariEnzo 09-30-2011 12:10 PM

11 Supercars from 1 guy... not from little kids that thinks the GTR is a supercar...
