I think I would have probably had the same alternator bracket/clutch reservoir issues, but my dealer noted those issues long ago and sources his own fixes for each as part of his delivery. Wayne at Gear6 ( I know, no names, but this guy is great) has a guy that fabricates a different billet alternator bracket and clutch reservoir that solve both issues and look awesome.

I have no vibration, but again, I attribute that to front end picky work on Wayne's part. He has a few guys he trusts to do alignment and engine install and I truly believe you get the advantage of a smaller market dealer. He makes sure there is a reason to get the car from him.

I, too, have a few minor issues with paint, but my wife thinks I am crazy, nobody would ever notice. I don't like the trunk support, but I don't use it that often anyway and have gotten used to dealing with it.

I did have the bulb that lights up the speedo come out of it's hole, but that was very easy to resolve, took about 2 minutes.

The only other issue I have had is that the key socket moves when I start the car. I have not been able to get it tight enough not to rotate, but I haven't spent that much time on it either. I am thinking about a hidden ignition switch for the key anyway and a push-button start. We'll see if that ever gets high enough on the priority list.

Any other complaints I could think of would fall into the category of "if you did not like that, why did you buy that car" kind of category.
