Interesting. A picture is just a representation of a real thing. A toy car is also a representation of the real thing. A picture of a toy car in the age of photoshop, et al is a representation of the real thing. So yeah, I thought you bought a real car, not a toy.
... full-size station wagon, white with a tan interior, a 1989 Mercury Grand Marquis Colony Park...
That to me sounds like a real car because it is a real car. My apologies for taking your post literally.
