It's interesting how the Carrera RS script has morphed over the years, as designers have taken some liberties with the font. The Classic Driver site unfortunately decided to include a close-up of the sticker on the ducktail, which clearly reveals that it is a later and incorrect knock-off; note the more rounded RS versus the correct 'edgier' font. Obviously an easy fix, but when the sellers choose to highlight an incorrect detail it puts a damper on what looks like a nice car.

Would the Kremer mods put this one's value above or below a stock, condition 1 restored RS. On one hand Kremer's racing pedigree and brand could be a value to some buyers, but to others this might simply be viewed as a non-original, non matching numbers RS. Thoughts? Does anyone know what Canepa is actually asking for the car?

I went very close to buying that car from Dwayne in 2007. My memory (which is fading) tells me it did not have its original engine but a different case with the 3 litre motor built around that
yet it seems to have its engine number stamped there now. I checked if I still had our email correspondence to confirm my memory but alas deleted.
