One way is to look for the factory Toyota VIN sticker placed on some of the body panels.
Here is one on the fender of an RSP car. Notice it's original, not painted over or taped off.

Open drivers side door and look for the sticker it should tell you the VIN, Engine, Trans, Paint code etc.
If it says 8L5 then its a real RSP

thebadz32, I've seen the ads on the SC300 that's in question and I'm quite certain it's original RSP.
It's a fair price for it too at only 70k miles.
