Thanks JT.  For some reason I've always been able to see alignment issues
like that on first glance.  Probably means I shouldn't have bought an
Italian car (mine's not entirely straight either) . . .  Only best way is
check it out in person.  If anyone does want the car checked out, please let
us in Panteras Northwest land know and we'll give it a go.

I see the twist that Mike T is addressing and it is consistent photo to
photo regardless of angle.  if that was a lens distortion it would shift.

BTW, just as an aside, there are three highways in the western central part
of Texas, that are our best motorcycle rides (Panteras do them also), and
they are called The Three Sisters!  You can google them.    ----BILL Lewis

Look at the straight line of the rear of the deck lid to the line of the
rear window, looks to be a severe drop the right rear of the car.

Then again, I did challenge you to prove me wrong . . .

which unfortunately causes distortion all the way around the outside of the
images.



Click on the links of some of the other cars and you'll see the same effect.
It's marketing hokum.
