When i first saw that item and read the description, i wondered how long it would take to turn up on here? being such a hot topic!!
Longer than i thought!!

So $10050 was the result, could be a good buy but I still am a bit suspicious

Reading the ad again I see the claim that the green one has no other numbers aside from the eng # but a pic of the green one shows an ID plate

Red one could well be correct, albeit without the radiator panel.

I think that the picture of the green one shows the foil paint sticker in the engine bay. It seems too shiny for an ID plate and if it had the sticker it would not have had an ID plate and may not have had a compliance plate. There was a 6-9 month window when they were not fitted with plates.
That car has the right features to be in that window.

does look that way - I reckon there might actually be two paint stickers, so one for the body and one for the roof which would be another good clue

red one doesn't have the right vibe....

I've had another look and I don't think it is just paint sticker/s. There are too many silver bars close together, just like the ID plate has for body number, engine number etc.
