What band was in Knight Song, BTW? Wasn't that N'SYNC or was it some other band? If it was N'SYNC than I can see why he'd want the car.

But then again, I can see why anyone would want a replica - they are just so cool!

If you look at the pics on Mark's site you can see that it originally had gold wheels. Barris later put a 1-tv dash with candy lights, steering wheel in it and sent it to the CARS OF THE STARS museum in Gatlinburg, TN. I personally know the owner. The owner of the museum got tired of it after a couple of years and Barris sent it to a museum in Florida. Then that museum went bankrupt and they auctioned off all their cars. I guess that's where Joey Fatone bought it. Mark asked the museum to pass along his contact info to the new owner if he wanted the car "restored". You know the rest. NOT SCREEN USED. That's what they say when these replica cars are auctioned with Barris' name on them. Helps run the price up. There are a lot of replica TV and movie cars out there that have been sold as screen used. Just Batmobiles alone is unbelievable. Hope I shed some light on this.
I'll have to agree with you on this. I can't believe how many people with money like that can be so gullible all the time. It's a nice car regardless, but I'd like to know if it was a true screen used car or not if I bought it. If it were in fact a screen used car, I'd never put those extra upgrades in it like those trunk speakers or extra cameras and such. I'd probably just restore everything that was originally in it and nothing more. If it were a replica, I'd probably put my own unique modifications in it like Joey did.

It's New Edition and I actually have a copy of the song (Count Me Out) that they sang in the episode it you want me to send it to you.
Or if anyone else wants it!! Just let me know.

kitt_rulez - Thanks but no thanks.

I'm not into those bands anyway. Just was curious.
