Did you contact Ed Bolian from vinwiki? This sounds like a vinwiki story if I've ever heard one. He's supposedly a Lamborghini whisper. If he doesn't know no one else does.
I love the sit down talk. I think you should find the owner of the house (this can be done on public record), and see if you can find out if it belongs to them or a tenant. If it belongs to a tenant, they might give some indication of who they are or where they're from. Might help. Seems like it was illegally brought from Europe? That's my best guess.
If you import car parts into the USA and then assemble a car with the parts you can legally register it as a kit car. Although in the past there has been some cases where people where pulling the engines out of JDM cars and shipping the rolling chassis and engine in the same shipping container and that was deemed to not court as car parts and was not allowed to be imported. So it would seen that the completeness of the cart parts and weather they are all shipped together or not can determine If it is illegally or legally imported.
12:54 It is fucking hilarious to me that the pinkertons still exist. Hiring pinkertons has to be like the most comically evil rich person thing you can possibly do
This Aventador was posted to VinWiki when it was in Atlanta for cannonball in 2016. It had a damaged rear diffuser. Ed Bolian said it was serviced at prestige imports and had a carfax 6 years ago
Google Maps shows that Aventador parked out front of the house and it's green, so you were definitely correct about the previous wrap. Loved this video, can't wait for more!
In the picture from the European carfax it’s says under the lien registry that the car is from Poland, I’ve seen and heard of cars that have been crashed going there to be rebuilt, US and European spec cars of all values as I’ve seen a US spec Aventador 50th anniversario and 675LT for sale. Along with a few stolen supercars spotted being driven in that direction, in particular a 488 Pista that disappeared a few years ago. So potentially that might be something to look into…
Interesting.. There was a yellow Murcielago SV from India that was wrecked n lyin at a garage which was picked up by a Polish gentleman who has now built it in under 4-5 months n made it roadworthy. He supposedly has 3 SVs n a few other Murcis in his collection.
Sounds About Right. I Had a Two Toned Wrapped Mercedes S 550 and i got into an accident and long story short my AirTag shows it’s located in Poland Right now at some warehouse/Plant.
I'd say the car was illegally brought from Europe, stolen in NY, painted the rims and brake calipers, then let it sit for a while in your area, and then sold it or gave it away to a friend who then cleaned up the car and decided to take better care of it. Interesting series Effspot! Looking forward to it!
I speculate it was a U.S spec car that was “stolen”. Owner probably had it insured for double the amount and committed insurance fraud. The current driver changed the lights/side markers and painted the exterior bits to make it seem EURO spec. The VIN is a fake from a mole in Poland.
i think the detective segment is super cool. i’ve always loved watching your abandoned super car vids. i think you can find out a lot just from public records if you dedicate the time to digging for your new venture.
I've been following you for years as a subscriber. This new chapter in your RUclips pursuits is exciting and I implore you to continue. I love all shiny automobiles American and European. Your reports on the ground keep me current on what people are buying, driving and appreciating. I believe you will graduate to a podcast, which will be a true success. Love you brother. Blessings.
What an incredible story. You have to keep doing these kinds of stories. I was completely fascinated mate!! You’re right that no one is coving this part of the car scene. Awesome work Detective Effspot!!
In Europe you can do "VAT carousel", each year the EU loses more then 2.2 billion euro to it. Maybe it was involved in some kind of way since it is an european spec?
Loved Detective Gordon. Great to see you expanding your channel into an area that no other car RUclipsr would even think of going to. Keep up the amazing content.
Put in a call to John Temerian STAT. Between the 2 of you the mystery will be solved in 24hrs. Then call Ed Bolian so he can shrewdly negotiate it's purchase! I'm a car guy but I'm not the biggest fan of watching others "car spot". I enjoy doing it myself when I'm out and about. That said, I never watch ALL of a car spotting video, ever. I was glued to yours and will be subscribing if you make these abandoned car sit downs a thing! Thoroughly enjoyed it! P.S. I tune in periodically to see if I can catch a video of your Benz making orgasmic type noises. Just happened to catch this and was glued to my phone until the end.
I wouldn’t post the cars location and house it’s in front of like that. People who watch can go to these places and potentially steal, vandalize these cars because they know it’s abandoned
I'm going to love this series. That was very interesting. I always wondered what happened to the owners and why the cars sit there like that. Not just your everyday cars so its always strange to see that.
Love the Detective Spot segment, along with everything else you do!! Would definitely love to see more of those and who knows, maybe you break a case wide open in the process!!
It isn’t uncommon to not have a vin pop up on google. My bmw and f150 produce 0 results and they’re clean title bought from dealership. In the leu of finding the original owner, I would look into the owner of the home and or renters. Also, you can look into the LLC as it is public record and it will show who is on or under the LLC typically. Just be careful, sounds sketchy already with it being registered as a kit car. You never know who these people are lol. Love the new segment though Gordon!
This!! This is legit! Awesome work guys and if they just moved the car a few weeks ago and its been sitting for at least a month with all that dirt that is very suspicious and its probably in a parking deck somewhere now. Whoever has it doesnt seem to care about the condition of the car only trying to hide it...
Hey effspot. Regarding the aventador, could you talk to someone in Lamborghini? Maybe they could look up the vin or plate number. Obviously a random sales person wont disclose client info. But maybe somehow get a contact in a store?
Great cars as usual Gordon! Interesting story about the abandoned cars too I like the Detective work and the sit down to go over your thoughts. Interesting to see how it turns out! Thanks for sharing effspot!
Yo what’s up Gordon! Loving this new type of close up talk about these stories no one else talks about in the automotive industry. #dectectivespot has my approval, can’t wait to see more of these!👊🏽😆
A lot of cars vins don't pop up I search up the 39 cars I've owned vins every few months and only 3 or 4 pop up on Google also that's funny af they hired the Pinkertons
I looked the VIN up on the VINWiki app and here is what I found. 10/18/16 the car was first spotted on the cannonball rally “rear diffuser was cracked and dented in” - Ed Bolian left a comment stating “That is interesting. CarFax shows a service at Presitige and nothing about import.” 10/18/16 another post from the same user @ Nicholas showing a different angle of the car. Nothing has been posted since about the car. Car is in the same spec as you saw abandoned (red calipers, clear markers, and roof off [lord knows if the roof has ever been on it])
I believe it was “stolen” in 2015 under insurance fraud and the owner profited. By 2016 it was converted to a EURO spec with the side markers and some noticeable exterior bits changed. The VIN is fabricated from a Polish mole.
I’d say illegal import from Europe because lambos are substantially less money over there. Dude probably wanted to save 100k. Got a Montana llc so he could register it as a kit car without any inspection and get a plate to put it on the road. Honestly pretty slick.
Pretty cool Gordon, some nefarious stuff going on with that Lambo. Someone's working hard to get those "legal". Hope you get those 191k more subscribers soon!
so theres an a LP700 I filmed here in toronto where buddy had a SVJ kit made to turn his lp700 into svj thas actualy really convincing until you look close and realise its missing the ALA snorkels on the splitter and back wing and certain little details maybe its like that, I think maybe its a mix of everything you said , maybe it was the stolen 1 from out east and dude had the vin changed to euro to throw of detectives and then dude who stole it was smart enough to change the side markers to euro to match the chnaged vin and paint the calipers red
Man I half to say I always enjoy your videos no matter what you upload. And I really love this new detective addition to your channel it is vary interesting . And I can't wait to see more.
Car spotting can only go so far, I know most of the guys and their cars where I hang out. Now I go to hang out with friends. This is the next step, the stories behind some of these cars are nuts. Then there are the people...
I think the next step is some good ol’ detective work with some binoculars and install some cameras to catch a glimpse of the driver lol how crazy do you want to get? Or even what if you installed a tracker when the Lamborghini is spotted again? Don’t listen to me.
calllllled it the other day! i could 100% tell those were stolen especially with the boarded up windows and tons of cameras. Anybody that buys an aventador treats it like its their child. Those cars look like they were stolen from another country and imported here to hide and be sold as private owner,
COC Europe vin decoder will find that vin. It will have an exclamation mark for the E...If you put a U or a C it will spec the car fully. That vin is definitely sketch. Never made a euro spec with that vin is what it seems.
Definitely like the detective spott for sure. For more entertainment purposes or maybe makin it more intriguing maybe make this into a “podcast” type of vibe maybe with Mr.showstack himself someone who’s just as invested as you. Have him sit across with a mic perhaps.
Is it possible that it's stolen then modified the vin and whatever and registered as a kit car to wash it clean? this is a common method for smuggled car in China back in the day, you buy said illegally smuggled car, then buy a crashed/salvaged title car then claim you rebuilt it and it become a legally registered vehicle.
@@mexicanspec that’s just a example, I mean could this be the case of stolen but register as kit car to make it legally registered? I dunno anything about registering a vehicle in US this is just a possibility I could think of.
@@AAAA-oy3ye But the VIN is a Lamborghini VIN. Any DMV will catch that when a police officer inspects the VIn for first time registration. I think Gordon should ask the Lambo dealer in Calbassas, the car is wearing its plate, to run the VIN to see what comes up. Maybe the car was serviced there. The owner had to get that plate somewhere.

The only time I've seen people abandoning such expensive cars in the US has been very wealthy Chinese kids going back to China

Props for the shipstation sponsor, most people aren't familiar with the ordinary costs regarding shipping... it's crazy. Great video Gordon.
Agreed, I've dove head first with the Mr Sheep Shopify. Shipping is the last thing anyone wants to deal with!

Did you go to Ogara in Calabasas? The car has a plate from them on the car. Maybe they have some record of it in their system, service or something.

There's an "abandoned" dusty ass Viper at the bottom of a driveway on Sunset Plaza.
Really love the new series! 🔥 I’ve always been incredibly interested in the stories behind those abandoned super cars.
Detectivespot era has begun and I’m here for it.
Someone already made a video about the white lamborghini and the abandoned cars in LA. The house and the cars belongs to Mickey Rourke.
12:50 wtf am i playing Red Dead Redemption 2 or something that name Pinkerton sounds familiar
the fact that there were so many classic cars he just casually passed the mc12 its insane

Hiring the Pinkerton agency to find your Lambo is the richest thing I’ve heard in a while
Try putting the Aventador VIN in VinWiki, they may have info on it.
Got my Mr. Sheep and my Baby sheep. Handled it. Thank you for the vids
Sir. Effspot. Ps the baby is in the m3 and the Mr. Is in the lambo! 😮

The truth is its NOT abandoned. FACTS
Best carspotting youtuber!
Thanks man, I try!
This was the Best new content you could EVER make! LOVE IT 💯
Do more of these abandon cars
The 1965 and 1966 Pontiacs were the most beautiful cars around at the time, especially the Grand Prix and more especially in black.
I looked the VIN up on the VINWiki app and here is what I found.
10/18/16 the car was first spotted on the cannonball rally “rear diffuser was cracked and dented in”
- Ed Bolian left a comment stating “That is interesting. CarFax shows a service at Presitige and nothing about import.”

Thank you, was looking for this comment
Its obvious…A giant Mr. Sheep in Lambo clothing
The owner def got something strange going on. He def didnt get the lambo on a normal way, who doesnt get the police for smthing like that
Definitely enjoyed the detective segment. Would be cool to see more like that.
thank you Detective Spot, im now hooked. keep us updated
Isn't that Mickey Rourke’s house? Could have sworn I saw that in another video
Awesome idea. Detective. Yes. Aventador itself. What a great story.
Love this series please keep going with it!!!!

That’s a hell of a story for that car, seems like it would be cool to own if possible
People put clear side markers everyday on their US spec cars, it's unlikely a euro spec car.
Agreed, the VIN situation makes zero sense. It's got dodgy history for sure.
Do more detective videos💯

crazy ahh story we need some one to figure this out
Edit: also i love the new detective spot im excited to learn about these weird stories.
always a good day when effspot posts YESSIRRRR
This Lambo was shipped to US from Poland for a cannonball back in 2015 or 2016. Let's just say it was a one way trip.

maybe it was converted to a euro spec to make it look different from the us spec stolen in nyc
