mine's set up similarly and is completely biased to drivers seat
i find centre image fuzzy and just inside left a pillar from left seat - L & R images are ok

the secret is all speaker placement i believe - i wish i didn't have to use TA at all but i have a 30 cm
difference in pathlengths to fix up ....

you are welcome to listen to it to compare next time at an event or test n tune - but i would think
it would sound similar to your bluebird or ian's honda (only difference being i have 4" midranges
up on the a pillars giving a high stage ) .......

i wish my lotto numbers would come up so i can buy a mclaren and forget all about time alignment ..

This question wasn't posed to see if there is ways around this, because I know there isnt, just about physically impossible.

It was a way to see if other people thought it was possible. And that it proves that not everyone hears the same thing, no matter how experienced they are and no matter how quantitative it is...

ok, I have just finished setting up the car for Wagga, and whattayaknow - I have different T/A settings for left and right sides.

interesting thing about how sound travels inside a car, bouncing all over the place and whatnot, and how the ear can distinguish between a direct sound and another sound coming from 30mm away from the first....
