Darn if interesting things don't show up on used car lots.

So I am driving to work and had to go by the used car lot.
Mrs. Yasotay already said "No!"

What the ?!?! I'll send you a check.... ;D

Seriously, just how did this get there? Would assume, at my risk, that the ramp is nearby...

Thanks! Mark

Well, that's just... huh.
And I thought it was odd to see this at a highway rest stop a few days ago:

Close. It is a slightly "bent" RC-12. Suitable for display. The museum is just down the road. Still, seeing it in front of the the used car lot was just too tempting.

From the film's Wikipedia entry:

The Black Moon was based on the 1980 Wingho Concordia II designed by Bernard Beaujardins and Clyde Kwok, made by Wingho Auto Classique in Montreal.[1][2] Only one of these had been built, so in the movie, a copy of the car cast from a mold was used for stunts, as well as a third replica of the interior only.
