I have attached a picture of my C2D MBP, i have increased the contrast so the focus is on the lid. It was never like this when i first got it, but it never gets hot, so im not sure what has caused this. Compare the far left with the far right.
Got a tip for us?

Warped MBP Lid?

that lid looks fine to me, most of the mbpro lids i've seen have the left and right side lifting up a bit higher than the middle.
Same experience here -- almost all of the ones I've used have one side that sits a little higher when closed.
Haha, i have never dropped it, no scratches on it or anything. Everything is working. If you look at the far left, its flushed up against the bottom, the right side is leaving a gap
Mine also has the two corners of the screen 2 or 3 mm higher than the center (latch) part. Yours looks better than most. Don't worry about it, and enjoy your computer.
You are obsessing too much
It is a computer, not a car!
True, but you can get some cars for less than a nice Mac these days!!

if i was spending 2-3k on a laptop, it better be perfect.
I guess it's all in how you define perfection.
If the distance between the lid and the main body not being 100% even when closed bothers you enough to consider the model flawed, then I'd highly suggest you not buy one.
