Sorry to interrupt your spun bearing reading/discussion, but I thought I'd post something positive to help offset some of the negativity that's been looming around here lately. I love this car!
On Saturday, my brother and I coordinated a photoshoot inside his new 220k sq. ft. warehouse while it's still empty. We had 13 cars show up and it was a blast! It's not often that you get to host a car meet inside an air conditioned building, let alone have perfect lighting throughout. Since I spent more time socializing than I did photographing, my brother and I will be going back again this weekend to do shots of just our cars...so I might have more to post next week.

What industry is your brother in that would require a building that large?

Is this rear hatch out of alignment? I ask because there seems to be an inordinately large gap between the hatch and the rear fender area. Also, why doesn't the TA 1.0 rear spoiler/wing sit flat against the rear fender?

My 13 GTS has the same sized panel gaps between the deck lid and the fenders / rear bezel, so I don't think that is unusual.
The TA 1.0 spoiler has never sat flat on the fenders, only on the deck lid. This is likely to avoid contact when slamming the deck lid shut.

Thanks for the answer! Your conclusion about the spoiler makes sense.

Thanks for the compliments, everyone! The lighting in the warehouse really played well with the anodized carbon finish.
Great pics, but what about the Viper is tw3rk? Just curious what it means in relation to the car.

The Viper's ass can be all over the place if you let it...kind of like twerking. I'm immature, so I find it humorous but some people don't agree. I'm lowered with BC coilovers.
The sound of those cars in that warehouse must have been amazing! Nice pics.
The noises brought smiles to everyone's faces...but I think my brother's F-Type R takes the cake. He just ordered an exhaust for it today, too!
What industry is your brother in that would require a building that large?
My brother is a director at one of the largest health care organizations in Florida. Technically, the warehouse isn't "his", but it is his project and his baby.

Rexius nailed it. The gaps are no different than what existed on my previous TA.

I really love that color - and I was hoping for an anodized carbon special edition for the 2017 ACR finale. How easy has it been to keep the finish looking right? When I heard a few people say that it's harder to take care of than a black clear-coated car, I kind of shied away from it.

My first Viper was black. In my opinion, the anodized carbon is easier to maintain. Just like any paint, bugs should be removed immediately and so should any water. The thing is you can't polish out any imperfections with this paint, so you need to be careful. This paint is fantastic and cannot be appreciated enough unless you see it in person...the amount of pearl in the paint that allows the color to change from silver, to gunmetal, to black is just awesome!
