- Finally answering the question everyone has been asking me for years now. What happened with Gotham Dream Cars. Some things are bigger than youtube and are beyond what I can share openly on this platform. While there is still more info, drama, and content to come of this, this is a step.

Thanks Rob. Now I'm even more confused.
Justin lol
Haha yes!
Yup lol I get what happened but what makes me confused is he got canned by a company running under his own name, why didn't they just pull the name from the rental shop? Why didn't he get a lawyer after the first check he got was 45k short.
Like he said, there's specifics he's excluding so im sure once legal matters are settled, it'll make more sense
Lmao same the plot goes deeper
He sold his business to work as a employee. To get a steady paycheck and not deal with the ownership problems. Instead to keep things running and making money he acted like an owner vs employee without getting paid for expenses. Seen it happen many times. Ex owners who stay on as employees want their reputation to be upheld. They keep things running like they own it. The new owners didn't want to pay. Nickle and diming.
Sounds like this company is just begging to be sued
Notice how few specifics he's giving? I bet he's going that route.
From the way Rob is talking, everybody has lawyered up. I don't know the particulars of this case and how much $$$$ we are talking about, but I sometimes think companies are absolute fools with their lawyers. Try and weasel your way out of paying somebody, you get sued, then you spend all that $$$$ you saved on lawyer fees. Lawyers aren't cheap.
+TheTmaan55, no Rob is owed six figures and decided to just let it go. No shit Captain Obvious he's suing them.
I bet the case is over by now and he's waiting for another video to tell us he's won so he can get more clicks
Why are you acting so superior while agreeing with me?
When you get fired by the company you own, and still own it 😂😂😂
Thank you John Schnatter
Thats what Im saying !!!! You bought the car from your company now your company owes u money ?
Rob I’m lost in ur bs story ? Lol
...employment and ownership two different things...ignorance does not equate to BS...
he bought a car FOR the company, not FROM the company. watch the video again and try to keep up...
Steve Jobs got fired from apple 🤷♂️
Today Mr. Spaghetti explains he was a victim of a dine-and-dash.
lol
I just assumed the owner didn't like spaghetti
I was looking for this comment lls
El Cheapo oh that’s good
Kinda bummed I had to scroll pretty far down to find one of these lol I hope robs not removing them
getting fired from your own company...you are the steve jobs of exotic rental cars
Finally we get some answers to this question! I went from 0 to click real quick!
Has an American ever mentioned the word quick without real being in front of it?
North America or South America?
@@phoenixrising7047 ☝️I just took a *QUICK* shit 💪👌

@@jmasoncars4452 As one does, because lingering causes loss of circulation to the legs as has just happened to me. Work you useless meat cylinders!
Sounds like you need to contact vice media

Loooool
Damn, and he was still able to start adventure drives while all of this is going down. HOLLLAYYYYY
Keebos Recreation where’s your profile pic from?
SwagSubscriber it’s from the old cartoon Catdog
Thank you!! Now I can Sleep at night
That’s mill house
@@FramesInCinema think you missed his point
I guess all the people saying you don’t work at Gotham anymore can shut it 😂
Look A G sort of, don't work for, still own it. Gotta say good move.
You got fired for maintaining quality customer service...
What a hassle, Rob. Own and manage the "hotel" yourself going forward. Save yourself a lot of headaches.
I'd be curious to know the motivation for selling the customer interface portion of the business.
mbcris If my experience in retail has taught me anything, its that dealing with customers is a nightmare and I would rather someone else do it
Why wouldn't you sit at the top of a pyramid that pays you a huge lump sum of money to buy your assets AND continue to provide you with a paycheck?
This would be like my boss buying me a car so I can drive it to work. Sounds good!
Liability shifted without losing income
You also usually get a big chunk of change you can invest into expansions. The chain I work at sells some properties, leases it from the new owner and then uses the money paid to expand to new locations in the hope of increasing overall income. They pay more per month on rent but get paid $2 million or so and open a new location with that. Risky if the new location fails hard, great if it also produces a lot of money.
Today, Mr. Spaghetti tells us why the pasta house got rid of his meatballs🍝
mctown972 is this referring to a pastactomy ?
You would be perfect for a VinWiki story.
He has heaps
jon doe why?
Better call Saul.
Tu Ho lmao 😂
Between your luck and getting hit by a Mack truck please point me to the nearest intersection
1 hacker way.
I love the Integrity you show towards other people even when they wrong you much respect
Yes Rob… I mean totally not Rob but “darl”
You are so kind and amazing.
Today Mr spaghetti tells us about how his tomato plant wasn’t producing enough sauce for the pot.
Theres always one....
Bad summary/metaphor.
Thanks for sharing and being so open and transparent about everything you can! Much respect. I have watched you since you released superspeeders. You are an inspiration.
We all love drama Rob. So keep it coming coming coming.
Wow! I admire how upbeat and positive you have remained. Keep moving forward
Rob,
I manage a slaughterhouse in Colorado. Somewhat similar situation to yours. I have worked for the owner of the company for almost 8 years, the last two years I have been contracted as a DBA 1099. This Friday would be the 30 day mark of not paying me. We recently had a 3rd party audit for a certification to sell to Whole Foods. We passed with a 97% acceptance rate (This is nearly impossible to achieve). In order to obtain such a high score, I had to invest into a lot of materials and labor out of my pocket to just pass the audit, let alone a 97% passing grade. At this stage with multiple attempts to collect and over $10k owed, what do you do? Just stop working for someone you’ve worked with for almost a decade? Go to small claims and surely be fired? I have little to no legal power as a 1099.
Any suggestions would be helpful... I’m cutting my living expenses left and right to make it through.
Thank you,
-Kyle
Please update what happened
Have no advice, but please let me know what happens. Best of luck my friend
Update?
I'm assuming you sued their ass? Sounds like selling part of it was more of a pain in the ass than what it's worth.
I do not have the mental fortitude to work in your industry. The constant swings of trust, money and business would kill me. You’re a smart and strong man.
Thats so fucked up, almost sounds criminal at this point. I can't imagine not being paid monies owed for literal years. Very interested to hear how this pans out or is going to pan out.
It's going to end with Company A filing for bankruptcy and getting screwed by the IRS. If they can't pay Rob 100k for multiple years, they won't be able to after a judge orders it.
Thank you for the info! The suspense was killing me! Btw: I bet that this is like 10% of the story and we are going to have to wait another 2-4 years to get the other 90%
Mr Spaghetti hires chefs to get his meatballs back
SO CONFUSED. I know zilch about running a business and intricate corporate dealings. Can some please clarify? This video made me more confused. How does he own GDC but doesn't own GDC facilities and got fired by the company he owns??? Was he basically franchising GDC? I'm genuinely curious.
He co owns the brand. Another dude bought the outlet
Let's take your local Krogers as an example. Krogers builds a new grocery store, but they don't want to deal with all the issues of running a property and they also get a tax advantage from leasing, so they sell the property they built to a property management company and lease the property back from them. They still own Krogers, they are just leasing the building from a from another investor and getting tax advantage. In this case Mr. Spaghetti, sold the cars and property to an investment company and continued to operate GDC using those properties and cars. In this case there would be a revenue split (kind of like a franchise).
MKTech so he has nothing to do with gdc anymore?
Been Trill if my understanding is correct he’s still part of GDC as a company just not that location anymore
dustyn trueblood oh okay that’s good! Thanks!
When someone owes you money, you have your lawyer contact them about payment. Always use a lawyer. Threaten them fast and early to avoid this shit.
"Owned by me, Noah, and some other guy" lmao Shows what he thinks about that other guy
@superspeedersRob Trying to tell this story on RUclips is difficult because it is complex, I am sure many commenters will not get the point. But I appreciate you making this video because I get the gist of it and it explains why your vids changed. I started following you because of the cars and the straight car videos are the ones I like to watch. For me you could make videos of lesser cars, I would still watch it. It is not about supercars, but you giving your take on them if that makes sense
Sounds like the only winners in this debacle are the lawyers.
Aren't they always.
God bless your even-handed, patient approach. 2nd missed payment, I would have been onto the lawyers. !
There's about to be 100k bad Yelp reviews by morning I'm sure lol
That would only hurt rob. He owns the company.
Like byw said fucking with GDC would be bad company x would need to be the target but we don't know company x
I think its Beverly Hills Rent-A-Car, but I can't be sure
you've got some patience Rob, the second lie to me would be the green light for aggressive lawyers and a repo truck just to show whats up.
Never clicked on a video so fast. FINALLY we get answers
nope... still befuddled
This created more questions tho
That’s crazy. As the parent company pretty sure I would talk to my partners and not just sue them but cancel their franchise and retake over the business
Beverly Hills Rent-A-Car (BHRAC) and Gotham Dream Cars (GDC) announced that they have combined to form the country's largest dedicated luxury and exotic car rental provider. Both BHRAC and GDC will continue to operate as separate brands.
Hey...you're in Jersey right? Hire a hitman! Badda bing, badda boom.
CNY review he’s going to whack somebody with a toasted loaf
More like Gotham Nightmare Cars. What a massive pain in the nuts!
Chef Spaghetti over cooked some
Meat balls and gets his apron taken away
Rob is the best, you explain the business side as much as the fun side. I might never see an exotic but if I do ill know a shit ton about it thanks to this channel and vinwiki. Yall are the best
Thanks for the update Rob, sounds like you were way to patient with them!
You're a very patient man rob... letting that drag on for so long is pretty amazing
However... if one is to succeed in business over the long term, 'patience' can be far from a virtue.
Personally I have to ask, what kind of businessman lets unpaid bills go for a few months, let alone what sounds like maybe even a few YEARS? Surely no astute businessman would.
And then whine about it to the RUclips world? That's like the folks posting their own car crash video and trying to blame it on the 'other guy' when it is so obvious it was their own fault!
Never let things slide when it comes to money...it never gets better. Sooner or later it becomes enough to fight over in court, then nobody wins.
Knowing is half the battle. The other half is violence.
I like how rob explains and tells things exactly how it is. No bs.
tl;dw: He was owed a lot of money by the new owners of the company who never paid him after repeated promises, so they found a bullshit excuse to fire him.
Oh what a tangled Web we weave if first we practice to
rent cars?
Wait a second this guy talks more circles than my wife....
Sometimes you already know the inevitable. Better to face it quick than too late.
gotchu bro, i will call Telemundo responde for you.
Gets kicked out of a garage, sued by a company, hunted by the cops, loses money on a Ferrari 458 to some Italian mobster... who the hell does business with this guy!?
NOBODY TOUCHA' THAT SPAGHET!!!
It's June 2019...have you been paid yet?
They sounds like some REAL winners! I hope you get paid, and beyond that, extreme pleasure in speaking the truth and watching karma kick their collective ass.
Things that won’t be happening.
1. Him getting paid (he’s praying they don’t highlight tax issues and misuse of company resources)
2. Karma kicking anyones but. Because Karma doesn’t exist which is why Rob isn’t in prison right now.
Today Mr. Spaghetti tells us how he was fired from his own restaurant for using someone else's meatballs.
Today Mr. Spaghetti explains how his meatballs gave him food poisoning.
Why did you sell the company?
I’m admittedly slightly more confused now but that definitely sucks. Is there any retribution or is it a matter of “you can’t get blood from a stone” kind of scenario?
I used to watch (the original cartoon) G.I. Joe every day after school... "And knowing is half the battle !"
Keep us updated. This is educational for people.
Man after all this ur still standing strong
You need to invite VICE to do an exposé segment.
When are u getting ur own shop for all your cars
joey William never he’s got all this money but he take the cheap route . Remember he said he was getting a ship and ended up sharing a little space 🤣.
George R what kind of ship?
wait.... after they fired you, are you still the owner?
Get em Rob.. Even tho this shit is none of our business, thanks for sharing it.
Rob is a real OG, like they can’t have him on vinwiki he spits straight fire he’d burn the building down.
I’m a farmer and while I’m dealing with a obviously different situation it’s the same kind of shady bullshit. Can’t get anyone to do anything period.
Thank you! Been wanting to see about this for a long time now. Go get em Mr Spaghetti!
You own gothom dream cars but got fired from it and they owe you money... wtf
I still need to know what happened to that dream home... Its been over a year. Where is that update!?
Been waiting for this Mr Spaghetti!!
So this is where you take them to court and get a judgement and file the paperwork that when they go bankrupt/sell you get the money finally?
Can u please do a 3 hr special on this !!! I had no idea
GI Joe😂😂😂😂
mr. spaghetti explains how he got kicked out for having too many spicy meatballs
Today, Mr Spaghetti told us he had them by the meatballs, but it was the noodles that turned out to be too slippery.
you literally let anyone scam you and use you for profits.
can i scam him
wah panda no
@@Antnee7 wrh
@TitanSilver354 the word literally.
Robs a multimillionaire with no worries about finances.
He sure must be one lucky guy if he lets everyone swindle him yet is still unfathomably wealthy.
A friend of mine sold his company and had the same experience in not receiving payment owed.
How does one get fired from a business you you own? 🤔
jesus the amount of stress this should be causing
Keep yer head up, Rob! Sending some positive vibes your way!
Please make a longer video about this.
If they promise to pay, then don't, their word is worth nothing, now you sue them and take everything they have. "Stiff me once, shame on you; stiff me twice, shame on me."
havent you learned from a ferrari deal? keep trusting everyone gonna loose everything
Sounds like a job for Tony Soprano. He get's things done.
My guess was that they started receiving spaghetti in the mail
"Knowing is half the battle"...….loved G.I. Joe cartoons
About time you answered this! Been years!
Other question: Why did he sell the fullfillment part of the operation and then stayed there doing fullfillmenf for them? All this makes no sense.
Mr. Spaghetti asked for Lobster Ravioli with meat sauce...ended up getting Cheese Ravioli and Marinara...
wow rob you are far more patient than i would have been
Why did you sell that facility in the first place? If you want something done right you have to do it yourself
few answers and even more questions. Did you get your money in the end? Seems like they are having money issues which is a huge red flag :(
No I've only recovered $15,000 thus far.
Big company, shady, don't want to mention the name. I'm going to throw one guess out there: CarMax. Also, I just found out CarMax came from Circuit City. Odd transition, but oh well.
Sounds similar to a situation between my sister and I. Though she only owes me $6300 instead of north of 100 grand, I don't think I'm ever going to see a penny from her. Especially now that she's in prison...
And yet somehow I’m more confused now than before
Been waiting too long for this
Ok so to break it down for those who don't know what Rob was talking about... GDC brought on a third-party logistic company to help coordinate their rentals in the NJ location by helping distribute rentals and help with their fulfillments. They agreed to come on board by sharing 50/50 profits and took over the lease of the building. Third-party company started to flake, Rob wasn't getting paid, drama ensued between both parties, lawsuits were filed, and Rob was evicted from the building.
Can't wait for the next episodes, everyone's enjoy a good drama.
I hope you sue the crap out of them for money they owe you plus interest, lawyers and court cost.
Don Hanson probably why he hasn’t spoken about this until now
You ever heard the saying you can't get blood from a rock? Why does an American first say sue
Doesn't sound like they have it.
@@fleettech3570 what else are you gonna do? Kill them?
You sue then so you can get leans on their assets in case of bankruptcy you get your money. They can not sell stuff that has a lean.
Rob i have a question that has nothing to do with your video but I’d like to hear your input. What is your honest opinion on a Shelby Series 1, I’ve asked this somewhere else and just like the internet people are ignorant on what they tell me. I just want to hear what you have to say about it and if you’ve ever had any experience with one in your line of work. If you do respond, thanks in advance.
The oldsmobile engine sucked, but it looked pretty cool. For $50-75k not a bad buy. Anything more than that (and I have no idea what they are trading for) is a waste. Shares a lot of control knobs and the such with part bins.
