Side note: I wish GTR techs would do the Z's too

my concern is not about the competency of the mechanics but about having an expensive car like that parked in a dealer that sells/services regular cars. The car would stand out and sometimes bad things could happen. I would have a little concern taking a GTR to a Nissan dealer for service too, but this Viper is a lot more expensive!

I agree with above, get to know the dealership / owner of dealership. Find a guy you trust there and make sure only he touches your car (including when you give it to them in the service bay)

Love that they went back with some styling cues from the second gen. The headlights remind me of the Ferrari F12 Berlinetta that was recently released. Oh and I like the new snake logo! Coiled up and ready to strike. See if it can strike down the ZR1

Can't wait to see what it does in the shootout.

Make sure you take it to a good dealer then and do a before and after inspection with the GM of the dealer.

Ultimately, there will always be a risk taking a vehicle like that anywhere, not just a dealer. Drive it, love it, and understand it WILL get a paint chip.
