It is safe to say it is real. Nobody is faking those cars that I know of. They don't bring much money so the crooks don't bother with them.

I couldn't open the attachment, but all Pace Cars were two tone black and silver with silver interior. If the trim tag verifies these interior/exterior colors, you have a Pace Car. If it doesn't have a trim tag or if the tag shows another combination, stay away.

One sure way....8th digit of VIN must be a "9" or no-go.
