    My daughter just texted me these picts. Says she spotted it in Oakland, CA today on her way to soccer practice. Wish I was driving her instead of my wife!

    Anyone recognize the car? Is it the real deal? I'd assume so, but the side vents look a little different to me - and I'm surprised to see a car of this caliber being transported on an open trailer.

    Either way - cool spot for my 14 year old daughter!

    I suspect not real but there are real ones in that area.

    I think it's a repro that has been for sale for a while now.

    Thanks, all. Well - my intuition was right. I've only seen a couple live and the picts looked slightly off, but I wanted to give it the benefit of doubt. Thanks for moving the thread where it belongs.

    There's a real one at Fantasy Junction in Oakland. Go see for yourself!
