Yea we spoke on AIM about it.

I think Monetgo is the worst color for the Fd.

I would gladly advise anyone interested in changing it.

I had two and I hated it.

I should pin this just to see waht people think of Montego blue.

It's the only ~iffy color.

I think the VR is a good color for a FD. Just too bad they are so common. And many of them look like ***. I think Red is a great color for any exotic sports car.





But, yeah, The others are badass too. I even like the MB. And don't mind the Tan interior. Its good looking if its CLEAN.
