don't know about "odds" but there are certainly less of them from a build perspective?

a quick way to check for an x50 car is to feel up under the i/c's and see if they are "rough" like cheese graters. can't think of any non modded car that would have the gt2/x50 ic's ( in spite of their limitations ) without other more obvious mods.

Well, according to the build specs database, the car in question is definitely an X50. Buyer either doesn't know better or is trying to lowball the seller. The OP's car came very nicely optioned.
