That's mondo cash to copy the paint job and vinyl sticker scheme.

Looks like someone is trying to advertise themselves as Spoon distributors.

Yup, they're ricers. Check out their ricerboy website. http://www.teamorangeracing.com/main.html
Really unprofessional looking.

AFAIK, Polyphony Digital (the guys that brought us GT) started sponsoring Spoon racecars with the S2000.

i'm pretty sure the number's not acurate too, 95 is the number they use on the EP3 and AP1 N1 race cars.
