I'm sorry, but I'm not going to be able to respond to this line of questioning (for reasons that will become clear if/when the puzzle is solved).

Oh, no problem at all! I anticipated the issue would arise when I selected this car for the subject of a puzzle. In fact, the unique situation this car creates is what attracted me to the idea in the first place. :D
