Edited title for spelling - RC

These guy's claim that they build high detailed replica cars. From their YouTube channel you can see their 'work'. For example they claim that this video shows a clone

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=li2hlEZmkWg&feature=related

This seems a nice and well made clone, but these cars are actually rental cars, so they film the real thing and present it like replica/clone.
With a deeper look you will find their Zonda replica

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPb0OMAinkI

They make idiotic claims like they will match the specs of a Pagani Zonda
and you can clearly see its just a shell.

And then its their assembly line video (my God)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dx8Ld7cV0wo

This video in my opinion is one the many that indicates fraud. You can clearly see, even if you have the don't slightest knowledge of manufacturing cars, that this place is far from a body shop that can produce clones like the maybach.
Over all as far as I saw they will troll and lie in forums, comment on youtube and pretty much everywhere to confuse readers, they have a facebook page with fake images of real cars posing them as clones, they copied several legit replica sites scamming people posing as them, they used to have a fake wikipedia page but its closed, their website still has the link but it redirects you to wordpress and if you make a small search none ever received a car.
Too many lies, dubious characters, and a lot of sh"$t. This smells by miles...

I especially love the part at 1:20 - 1:24 where someone scrolls pictures in internet explorer - the machine probably doesn't have a video card driver installed and runs with the build-in super-vga, so you can see the screen redraw as the person scrolls.

I also love the chick pretending to examine the blueprints - they use paper blueprints designing the car? Riiiight....

I'm surprised Youtube haven't been asked to take these videos down. there are a couple from unhappy punters, this one paid $25K

There are cheapo kit cars, there a 'Ferrari' round here with a Peugot engine. It looks OK, but doesn't sound like any V12 I ever heard. When all's said and done, you shouldn't send money on the basis of a Youtube video, for something you've never seen with your own eyes.

The lawyer says its OK, and he has a desk, and tie and everything so thats alright then.

No need for a full quote of the post immediately above - Spot.

I forgot about the lawyer!!! I think this video is just the cherry on top the cake... just pathetic. ..
I feel sorry for the people that fall on their web, but you are correct. Buying expensive items over the Internet requires a very careful research. I flagged their videos as scams(at least those you can)and every fake page like Fb, but I think that wont stop them.

I am not sure but this seems like a scam

http://www.youtube.com/user/TRUCKERSHIN01.

I am not sure yet but probably they are the same people. With a different scheme though. I think their site is more like identity/bank account theft orientated.

I loved it so much I bought a franchise!

This makes a good read, especially the rants from SR's owner, 'Tony Sinclair'

From this article is clear. They are so cheeky...They are not afraid, they are not hiding and they think that none is able to catch them, but above all they think we are stupid.

Some refer to them as con-artists but in my opinion they are just a bunch of low-life parasites.

I wish someday they get what they deserve, because they scammed a lot of people and maybe some of them gave them their savings to 'make their dreams come true', who knows how many victims are out there...

Being in Panama, they are untouchable by the law, apparently, but someone should have a pop at reporting http://www.supereplicas.com they have other websites too, but this has been around for a while. Google will unearth plenty of evidence that its a scam.

Or you could contact [email protected]
his son paid them $28,000, got no car and Mark created the blog
http://scamsonline.wordpress.com/2008/08/05/supereplicas/
The scammer signed up, posted more Youtube 'proof', then resorted
to calling him a racist, competitor, former emplyee with a grudge, religious nutter, and everything else he could think of. Tony's rants are epic.

Its almost AFF, in that they get a deposit for a car they are never going to build. If you do pay the full amount, they play the taxes and shipping card in true lad style. Either way, noone ever got a car apart from their trolls on the forums, who register and vanish when forum members ask for photos with a custom sign to prove its not a generic photo (sounds like us!).

Having read the forums, the orange Lambo in the videos is a Triangle (?) kit car they bought, other than that you see pics of cars in dealers and generic ones off the web.

I dont know much about hostgator.com but at least they're in Texas and not in Panama!

I wonder if they'll build me a Batmobile? ( told them I want the Batman Returns Val Kilmer version, not the Ed Roth 60's one.

They do risky free replica yachts too:

They do self generating electric cars Shocked

too!

This could do also with a report, they delete posts that aren't from drooling idiots or plants.

Haha!!! I guess they will make it...not only that they will fit wit with a 'pherfic' copy of their own Pratt & Whitney engine...
I did to them a similar quote about their twin(!!!) V12 Veyron and they responded with a nice email telling me that this their top offer and they have 12(!!!) different configurations in stock!!!
The rest of their email said in short pay first and after I will give you photos and information...

P.S. The perpetualmotionecobattery thing I agree is just unbelievable in so many levels....

Hi Ken,

Yes that's the right one, you will see that there are several.

There is an original on display outside Batman: The Ride at Six Flags Great America
if you can get someone to measure and photograph it.

It was designed by Anton Furst, and was built on a Chevy Impala chassis.

Eventually I will have him modify it so my dog can stick its head out of the window, and I will need to carry my cement mixer on the back.

Hello again,

the cost for the identical Batmobile with a tube chassis and a new LS7 Corvette engine is US$21,000.

best regards

Ken

Hells Bells! I'm getting a Batmobile, They will be so jealous down the Rovers Return. I'd like to get a bank account out of them, and also see if I can make them do some work. If I could get them to go to that theme park at 6 Flags to fake a video I would, but I guess they wont do much without a deposit.

Quote:

I am keen to go ahead with this, it sounds great.
I want it for the Weatherfield Museum of the Moving Image,
where it will go on display on the Red Rec Adventure Theme Park

Please give me details of the deposit required, and how to pay it to you.
The museum accountant wants to see drawings of how the car will be
put together, to make sure it will be convincing, before he will release funds to an overseas company. If you can oblige him, he will release $21,000 into my purchasing account.

Yours sincerely,

Royston Cropper

I wish you the best on your efforts, they deserve it and it would be funny if they reply to you with a video to show their "progress"...And only 21.000$, I thought engine and gearbox alone is +15,000$. The rest of it they plan on making it out of cardboard??? Shocked

I missed to tell something on my first post....

Many people ask me about these people and their activities and this forum is very complete and user friendly. A great resource of information for everyone.
I hope I can contribute myself. Thank you. beers!
