Yes, mine was slightly more to the left. It wasn't so bad with the shifter body, but with the replica shift handle I got the geometry way off. I had to stick the handle in a bench vice and bend it. I didn't even need have the console on yet when I figured something was very wrong.

Mine looks like it over to the left. I am struggling to get the console back on. If it is skewed I will find out tomorrow.

Mine hits the side when I put it in reverse, but 1 thru 4 are dead center.

mine was to the left also the previous owner actully cracked the console because of this. I just added extra washers to the bolts that mount the shifter to move it in the center. Works fine now no bending needed.
