Sits too high on trucks, big fat wheels and couplers not to scale or not attached to car frame.

Well, maybe it's someone that takes a $30 car and after doing that sells it for $230?

It is listed as, "O-Scale," in the Lionel 2014 Volume 2 catalog, Dennis.
Catalog also claims, "Minumum curve: O-31," but it negotiates O-27 just fine, including switches.
You can see the difference between 6464 and Lionel Scale in these images...

Your new silver car looks like it came with postwar style wheels.
