Ok...it was just torture for me this weekend...Went to the beach today and saw a PW on Kanan (no, not the one I was driving). Was doing at least 60 MPH and driving manual while trying to snap a picture of the PW...this is what I got
...Glad I didn't crash with my Aunt who was visiting from out of state!!But here's a picture of my PW...I know - it doesn't count for the contest.

I spent last week in California and thought I'd see a ton of Clubmen but only parked next to this one in the Japanese Culture Center parking lot in San Francisco. What I did see was a million Prius's!

Thank you, thank you all! It was really fun. Made my days a little more interesting - lurking, searching, yelling in the car at Mike - LOL!!!
We went out to our local dealer yesterday - Brecht - and they had 14 brand new Clubbies on the lot....Our MA said they just got them in and had already sold half which were already gone and on the road. So there are definitely a lot more people that like them.
Happy 2009 and if anybody is interested in another contest of some type, let's do it!!

Hum...definitely a time frame....maybe something specific like by color? Pick a range of colors and the first person to post all of the specified colors?
Any other ideas?

If we take a look at the leaderboard which provides a nice indication of where people are seeing the most Clubmans, there definitely seems to be a large presence in Southern California which our top two contenders are from.
In the interest of giving everyone an equal chance with this future assignment, I’d like to propose the following type of contest…”Take a picture of your Clubman in front of ________________” or “Take picture of your Clubman next to _____________” or “Take a picture of your Clubman in a way that makes it appear _______________” That type of thing.
I guess this might not be so much of a contest as much as a way to just admire each other’s creativity = )
Also, I like this assignment because this way we don’t exclude the Clubman owner in Toledo, Bakersfield, Jackson Hole, etc…
What do folks think?
