I nearly typed "Real" for the answer...

It's a Model.

It even has working electric windows, to give you some idea of the detail.

Harry, what's your obvious tell? (assuming it isn't the tires)

The front emblem and "OLDSMOBILE" letters are bad, and the roof is too flat; it should have a noticeable "bulge' to it.

But the important thing is... you fooled them!  B)

What I thought looked modelish (a new word for the dictionary?) Was the front header above the headlights had a different curve to it it kinda flattened out then took a curve up to the hood. But those tires almost changed my mind, the most realistic aged rubber tires I've seen on ANY type of model.
