Check out his Power Rangers Lambo.

A sparkling Power-Rangers-themed Lamborghini, the crown jewel of a YouTuber's luxe vehicular collection, is now on the auction block, taking a turn from stardom to scrutiny. The wheels, and all their whimsical wonder, belonged to Bill Omar Carrasquillo – or as his YouTube fans know him, “Omi in a Hellcat.” But this tale is not all fast cars and flash – it's a saga of speed, style, and a downfall from the digital domain.

In a twist fit for cinematic screens, Omi’s motoring passion has been overshadowed by a legal ordeal. Carrasquillo's recent sentencing to a five and a half year stint behind bars came in light of fraud, copyright infringements, and more, a stark contrast to his high-octane vlogs and car showcases on YouTube. The U.S. Marshals Service's release states that the charges encompassed "piracy of cable TV, access device fraud, wire fraud, money laundering," resulting in copyright violations amounting to hundreds of thousands.

With the sentence came a staggering $30 million forfeiture money judgment and an order to repay $15 million.

Among the seized luxuries, the Power Rangers Lamborghini Aventador stands out, already garnering a whopping bid of $387,000.00 as of Friday. But this Lamborghini isn't riding solo. October 13 will witness over 55 of Carrasquillo’s head-turning vehicles, ranging from luxury cars and powerful motorcycles to zippy ATVs, go up for auction. Those eager to partake can either join the in-person bidding war at the historic B&O Railroad Museum in Baltimore or make their claims online, where the action has already ignited.

But wait, there’s more to this ostentatious collection than vehicles. Carrasquillo's dazzling jewelry is also set to shine in a separate online auction. One standout piece is the diamond-infused pendant, engraved with "Omi in a Hellcat" and showcasing a fierce feline, an emblem many of his fans would recognize from his videos.

From the spotlight of social media to the center stage of an auction, this saga of a digital icon's collection offers a striking narrative of luxury, legacy, and law.
