Its not all that unusual, but new cars can make it to the dealer slightly out of alignment. Hooked mine up to the machine the other day to find the LF toe out. Just ever so slightly outside specs.
Still drove fine, just did it because we were slow at the shop. Had about 110 miles on the car at the time.

Looks sharp, dude.

Not sure sure about those "space age" center caps on the wheels, tho.

Oooooo, you have one of those new fangled alignment machines. Is that much better than the older style with the big sensors? Thats what we have at my place, and I have never even seen the style you have untill now. Any problems with it damaging the edge of the wheel?

I had checked mine before and after lowering the rear. My toe was exactly 0 degrees on both sides before and after. I couldn't beieve it. But after getting the rear thrust angle corrected with an adjustable Panard bar, it threw off the front "thrust angle," and I had to adjust the toe to recenter the steering wheel.

No problems, thank god. I was concerned about that when I first seen the Fanblades in person. Some of those rim guards can be a pain in the Behind!
