Default what makes an SS into a real Dale Earndhart edition? seller sais his car is one

I need to make sure Im not getting scammed. Its a 2000 pewter SS. Its an automatic, supposedly its an slp ss. Only I thought the only dale earndharts were black with black billet grills and 200s american racing wheels?

anyway, it just has silver 10 spokes, and the only thing I see on the car that sais its a dale earndhart edition is the little badge under the driver tail light.

it also has cloth interior. Soo.. automatic + cloth interior= real thing? or is this guy twisting my leg?



and if it truly IS a dale earndhart SS... what would this thing be worth? he sais its mint and has 45000 miles


thanks guys!

sooo.. does this thing look legit? Im not gonna be buying it from him, rather trading my 2004 gto automatic with 106k miles. Im only doing this so I can flip this car and hopefully sell it for around 12000. does that sound like the right price for this car?

The car is a fake, the badge on the inside door jam is a badge you can buy off of eBay labeled as a slp clone jam badge. If the gauges and seat dont say it and the SS badges on a Dale edition are different as well it is a circle instead of the regular SS. It isn't real. If all else fails check the VIN but I'm 99% sure it's a fake

Looks like a base auto SS with z28 tips, not the real thing.

Sorry they have the regular SS badges plus a intimidator badge under it, sorry. They only came in black and as far as I can tell they are all leather

I hate people like this, this guy probably buys base model cars and clones them to rip people off every chance he gets, it's sad that there's probably a 16 year old kid thinking he has a somewhat rare Fbody bragging to all of his friends while they call him a liar behind his back when he doesn't know any better. All because of this DOUCHE!

No problem guy I did a **** ton of Internet work before I bought my 96 SS cause I know there aren't that many of them and everyone try's cloning, but luckily for me it turned out to be the real thing. I can't believe this guy thought he could get that to pass as an intimidator lol he might be able to pass it as an SS cause that's a lot closer to what it is, it's a regular Z/28 with hood and spoiler
