I thought I read somewhere a while back that “Montana” refers to the quality / grade of the leather, as far as I know, and Sand is the color. Could be totally wrong, either way you’re right its a fru-fru name, but I’m in marketing / branding / design and fully understand the need to make your product stand out and “feel” high end even in its names / nomenclature.
And yes Ming, I’m SURE it’ll do burnouts, albeit lame ones until I get an LSD, but it had BRAND NEW tires on it that I’m trying to sell so I didn’t want to ruin them, and I sure as heck won’t be trashing my new Hakkapeliittas!!
Nice pick up. We have a few of these at work for our company cars. I use them to go to my when they are out of town. Ours are not 5 speed but defiantly nice to ride in.
As interesting as it would be to see a wagon rip around a track, and be a sleeper, I don’t know if I could see myself owning one. I think the M coupe is my limit on a weird BMW. Nice pick up though!
The entire posi thing from BMW got really lame after the E36.
Don’t hold your breath on that one. Or if they do bring it here, it will be the weaksauce 6cyclinder auto version, not the V8 6spd on that was in MotorTrend.
