The first question I'd ask is where the hell the air filter went.

If the RPO sticker looks reapplied or otherwise played with: run away.

Really simple.
There ya go!.. thats what i do... check VIN

These "real SS or not" threads are getting old. There are so many threads with the answer to this question, that even the most generic search terms should give you the answers you need.

Anyway, this one is over.
