I'd like to find out from you guys what your take on this is, and if I should be concerned about it: A 65 pink mustang just went up for sale on Hemmings.
(Here's the link:
Hemmings Motor News: Auto Dealers - Hemmings Auto Classifieds feature cars for sale from auto dealers nation wide. )
My concern is that the car looks like mine. In fact, the photo IS my car. The photo was originally posted to Flickr.com by a car show buff. Here's the link to the original photo:

The ad describes all of my car's options perfectly, and the picture is my actual vehicle that he decided was nice enough to use in this ad.
Should I be worried about this? I'm on the fence about calling him and demanding that he remove the photo of my car, but I'm not sure if I could really accuse the dealer of fraud or misrepresentation and demand he remove it.
My biggest concern is that I found out when friends of mine started calling me to make sure everything was alright. They saw the ad, recognized my car, and wanted to make sure I was okay because they couldn't believe I would be willing to part with the car short of some family crisis. It's embarrassing to get those sorts of questions, but at least I know my car buddies are looking out for me! What do you guys think? Should I do anything? If so, what?
