Default 88 Pace car?

There is an 88 vette on ebay listed as "1988 CHEVY CORVETTE 35TH YEAR ANNIVERSARY-PACE CAR"

It has the original brown interior and and pace car decals. The guy has a 16,500 "buy it now" price. He must be a crack smoker.

This guy is a riot. He says he is "not sure" it is a real pace car.

Well, no matter where those graphics came from, it is not an anniversity car.

Could've been a festival car - 1988 pace car was an Olds...

"not sure if it is a pace car" - maybe he shouldn't advertise it as such unless he knows for sure?
