It is a Vette that was made for EU sales. Note the orange lite on the front fender. There are several more mods that had to be made in order to sell in the EU. I sold my Z06 to a German who didn't have to pay import taxes as I had it over two years.

The only major f-u on the Euro cars is the mandatory rear fog light design and placement. Those lights look like a bolt on afterthought - which is pretty much what they are. Would not have been hard to come up with a properly integrated design, IMO.

This one have Swedish plates, a funny thing is it do have a small yellow sticker that looks like a Ferrari stallion but it is actually a ” Swedish ” moose in the Ferrari stance, i would have it on the liscence plate.

My car does not have those terrible fog lights, i am not sure if it depends on if it is privately imported as my was, could also be that it applies to all cars that was sold as new in EC only.
