Montego on Terra 135i

I finally found time around work, when it wasn't raining, to give her a good wash and take some pics. I've been driving this car for four weeks, and just rolled 1000 mi. Coming from a MINI Cooper S, this car is incredible! It's way quicker, yet the ride and comfort are just sublime. It's so quiet that 80 is like 40 in the MINI. Effortless is the word that describes this car's acceleration. The MINI was quick, but it seemed to really work at it. This car just goes!

Looks great, I got the same color combo, except with high gloss black. Thanks for reassuring me of my choice

Beautiful. Now thats when I love brown wood trim. In a car with seats that match. The outside screams sport, while the inside is all class. Great pictures and enjoy the course. Golf that is. NICE !!!

Same here, except with aluminium. I'm still not sure I'm going to like the trim I picked, but I didn't want wood. I think the wood looks great in them, but it's not going to fit the personality of the car when I'm done with it.

Wow, I've been thinking I would want to order a Montego with gray leather, but this looks very nice! I'll have to sleep on it quite a bit when I get to that point.

I love this combo (hence why i have the same) although im glad i went with HG black (not that i'm hating on the wood i just like the black cause it stands out in the sun) and I am glad that those of you who are also getting montego/terra don't live here (call me selfish) I like being the only one in the area with these colors, but i know it will spread cause it is an amazing combo IMHO

edit: only 1k miles in 4 weeks? I got mine this past tues and am at 600 miles already, but i guess i do drive for work
