I've seen this car in person myself at the local hangouts by my area. From what the owner has told me, it is an actual SR20DET. The condition of the paint is alright, it's already fading, so I would say that its about 6/10. It can use a nice wax and buff. The front bumper isn't painted either, it's just primered. I've never seen the guy run his car at all, so I'm not even sure how it's running. That's all I can say about seeing the car in person from a second person point of view.
