I got the yellow Fiat second hand and it was fake. Didn’t take the right precautions and got scammed. It was cheap (~$25) so I can’t complain. The quality is noticeably worse than original Lego. The snap is way too strong and the finish is weirdly matte. It was so hard to disassemble.

When built, only a collector would notice but the building experience wasn’t enjoyable and I’ll probably get rid of it or sell it again with stating it is not original Lego.
