Wow! It only took 1238 posts to get to the truth!
When I'm asked "the question", I always answer "NO, if it was it would be parked in my living room." That usually sparks a conversation that can go in many ways, but I never lead the inquisitor to believe my car is "an original".
Now, many will say, "but you have the badges on the hood and trunk so you're misrepresenting your car". To me, that's part of the "replica" equation. They all "look" like the originals. That's why they're called replicas. And I do admit to fudging once or twice when a guy pulls up next to me at a light and asks what year my car is. At those times, it's easier to just say "it's a replica of a 1965". No time and too much noise to explain its a 2009 SPF. Mea culpa!
