We saw a royal grey with factory viper stripes and the JCW body kit in Walnut Creek, CA. Didn't realize I was talking to the owner of the car about our puppy in Pet Food Express until she was driving away.

Just spotted a True Blue CMS on Hwy 6. I waved but not sure they saw me.
Most Countrymen I see here are usually just passing through as I never see them again. But how cool would it be to see another regular who is just as enthusiastic?!

Saw a really cool SF Giants themed Mini Countryman S pulling into John Muir Hospital in Walnut Creek. Not a huge fan of the Giants or black and orange, but this car made it work. Was all black with orange viper stripes. Also had orange brake calipers and had the MINI letters in the emblem in orange. Topped off with a GNTSMNI license plate. Well done.

You passed me when I stopped for fuel in Strasburg, then I believe I saw you pulled over on 66 at Gainesville. Felt bad for you, sorry for your bad luck (light coffee or perhaps royal grey?)


Light white with black roof

Yesterday, Saturday around 6pm, saw grey or brown Countryman with white roof pulling into Pentagon City Mall garage by Macy's. Then saw Silver Countryman parked along curb on street by Union Station.

Today, Sunday, saw you driving your White Countryman on Hayes St by mall. Gave you a bump of the horn as I passed.

Saw a silver/black roof CM on 495-S (Boxborough, MA) this morning. Then watched as you followed me into the parking lot. Looks like we have the same employer. :]

Only saw one while I was in France visiting my parents this past week. It was a white CM with British plates on the A13 in Normandie near the Deauville exit heading towards Rouen / Paris early this morning. I was in a silver Citroen.
Back to SF now, MINI's everywhere!

Saw a Pure Red R60 with Black Roof parallel parked along Crystal Drive in Arlington, VA. Wanted to get my PR, pull along side and honk to see who waved!

Pure Red/White Top Base CM followed me up MD-97 for about 10 miles, passed me under I-70, and then I followed you for another 10 miles. Looks like like you were having some fun on the turns.

2011 Silver countryman on Legacy dr in Plano

looked like you were headed into the HP campus. Caught my attention as I also drive a Silver countryman, just a 2012. Yours had the silver rims vs. my black rims.

Cosmic Blue

I saw another Cosmic Blue S today in Euless, turning onto Ash Lane from Main Street. The driver looked at my Kawby in amazement, probably because of his bright white shoes!!

CS/CS on Hwy 12 west bound. Same interior as mine. Had black wheels but couldn't tell if they were the 17" or 18". Gave you a thumbs up but you probably couldn't see it through my tint.

Everyday there is a LW/BL parked at the dentist office down the street from where I live.

Last 3 Thursdays in a row: SB/BL w/white wheels(Probably to match the wide white rimmed sunglasses). At the intersection of Cleveland and the 101 overpass.

CS/CS at the intersection of Crown Point Dr and Ingraham St in Mission Beach, San Diego.

That was yesterday. And then today, "sandwiched" between a RG/W (identical to mine, including the same roof rack) and a W/B crossing Navajo Dr on Cowles Mtn Blvd. That was strange, as I can go days without seeing a single CM.

Pure Red with White roof and white stripes driving Northbound on I-275 in Tampa, FL. Was behind me when I noticed, gave a wave and another wave as I peeled off for the next exit.

Weirdest thing. I was driving on base and came to an intersection with a black CMS to the left of me and a surf blue CMS to the right of me. Either the odds were great or there are too many CMs out there. I would hate to blend in, as I much rather stand out.

I'd rather think that is so cool!

Saw 2 this morning; 880 NB around 7:30 on my way to work . I drove along side of another surf blue CMS w/ roof rack (practically identical to mine). Then saw a pure black countryman about to exit on Montague Expressway.

I know there are some R60s around but haven't seen one in days and days. I did see a really cool MCS yesterday. It was red with black stripes, black rims, black roof/mirror caps, tinted windows. Looked really agressive sitting at the red light at 463 and Eldorado in Little Elm.

Countryman in Frisco, TX

Saw a nice blue Countryman with a white hat. Her owner was apparently taking in an afternoon film.

Pure Red/Pure Red CMS - On Indiana 39 in Martinsville, this afternoon, just before 4PM.

Sorry I didn't wave. When I saw you it was too late.
