Saw this in the parking lot at Bimmerfest today. Not really impressed.

I haven't seen any outside the confines of the dealer lots, but I looked over a few when I was shopping recently. The taillights are the only thing I truly don't care for. The roofline is similar to the Ranger Rover Evoque, but then it's also similar to the Kia Soul (unfortunately). The taillights, in person, look like Countryman taillights turned sideways, which comes across as a "lazy" design choice. If they were going to depart with tradition, they should have just gone with single circle tails - it would have fit the design language better.

To each his own, though - I'm sure there are plenty of folks who still dislike the Countryman.
