I imagine this started with a cease and desist letter, and took a number of steps to get to the stage of confiscating property. It is extremely likely these guys had the choice to avoid things going this far by simply making changes so they were not stealing intellectual property. Was it douchy to go after them? That's a subjective call. At what point do you stop someone from making a profit using your trademarked name? Also, if someone puts out an inferior product that could be mistaken for your work, wouldn't that make you a bit upset? The Chinese have made billions stealing intellectual property. Had those guys building the car been doing it in their garage and not making YouTube videos about it, I doubt it would have gotten a second look by anyone. Guaranteed there are plenty of Eleanor tributes rolling around.
