Re: A real Minicooper Transformer

that mini cooper is fake... least i think so. looking at some of the video's theres no shadow on the "robot" when the person walks by it . now i could be wrong but seems a little weird if yuo read all of it .. plus his diagrams make no sence .

Re: A real Minicooper Transformer

i read about this thing just like 2 weeks ago! A journalist was doin this thing on it. I think it's real...with how advanced we are in computers and technology...i mean, they have robots that have feelings. They have emotions, can respond to being touched, anywhere. I think its real.

Re: A real Minicooper Transformer

you can tell it's fake by the whole identifying a broken down car vid thing. notice the double take... thats only a human reaction, a computer would do a full scan on something, it wouldnt' turn back after it's gone over it... and yeah, the shadows are a good sign that it's fake.
