Another white countryman on Penn Ave. downtown in front of Central Restaurant. You went around me - honked and waved. My passenger was confused - but I was stoked.

I get the feeling that you just drive around DC all day looking for CMs. I'm going to go downstairs and sit at the corner of 17th & H (PNB Building) and see if I can spot you.

Yup that's me! I'm actually surprised the amount I see - now almost one a day and mostly white ones. I work downtown so I'm in that hood a lot. Keep your eyes peeled!

Does it count if you saw a bunch of them heading up to MITM? I was on my bike, but there were some pretty ones returning from various runs in the area.

Well, if that were the case I probably would not be allowed there. The part of town I hang out in is all about the beach and the bars.

Thumbs up Holden Beach CM

Just came back from a weeklong vacation to South and North Carolina. I saw no Countryman until I got to Holden Beach in NC. Saw this CM as I driving to our rented place along Ocean Blvd Drive. It was only a few blocks away from our beach house. Came across the same CM a few times while I was there and got waves each time.

Black CMS with white top and bonnet/boot stripes. Didn't see you until you were already turning, but don't think you saw me either.
Nice MINI! I tried to catch up but got caught up by the traffic light.

Yesterday at the corner of 17th & K. Waiting to cross to the Metro station, saw Zaftig's doppleganger on K. Had to check the plate to make sure it wasn't him. It was like de ja vue all over again.

I saw 2 countryman parked on the same block on Newbury Street in Boston. 1 was Light Coffee with a white top that unfortunately had a parking ticket on it and the other was all Black with Jersey plates. I really wanted to wait around and meet the owner of either CM but I was worried I would get a parking ticket too!

My wife works at 18th & K. But she doesn't drive downtown. Surprised she hasn't mentioned any sightings.

spotters tip: Keep your eyes peeled tomorrow around 7:50am near the Foggy Bottom Whole Foods.
