How about..........."It's as original as I could afford when I assembled it". When you're traveling down a highway and receive a thumbs up from a biker, another sports car or what ever your car is as real as it gets. The cars manufacture (originals included) has little if anything to do with the smile you and that admirer shared in that brief moment. Don't forget that when asked the 'standard questions' you have one and the person asking the questions most likely doesn't. Enjoy what you've got.
