TGGRRR (Ali) Posted March 26, 2014 Report Posted March 26, 2014 While walking back to the office here on Quantico, I saw an all4, S, red paceman. Before I could finish my thought of, "wow, someone finally bought a paceman", it passed me and I saw PMoA loaner decal on the back window. Not sure what I will see with my own eyes first bigfoot, a chupacarba, or a paceman owner. Actually we have a member with a Paceman and she loves it! I have gotten them as loaners and enjoyed them. They exist in the wild and are well loved just like the other MINIs :love: Tigger 2006 the cabrio and Riversong the 2014 Countryman

GreenCactus Posted March 27, 2014 Author Report Posted March 27, 2014 I got a wave from a 1st Gen Cricket twin with Arkansas plates on 395 this afternoon!
Audiophile Posted March 28, 2014 Report Posted March 28, 2014 May be the Paceman is rare because it is a bad BMW? I had a loaner Countryman, what it is based off, and it handled like an old school bus. Did get a nice wave from a white 1st gen MINI on Fullerton a few days ago in Springfield. :wavey: 2012 Cooper S Roadster - H/K sound and bum warmers

LostDenverite Posted March 30, 2014 Report Posted March 30, 2014 tag said "suvbait" i let you out at montgomery mall. i was in the red and black Cooper I came across MD tag SUVBAIT on Friday afternoon. Going around the inner loop from Silver Spring and up 95N. I flashed, I honked, I pulled up up the drivers side and waved. No response. So I got back on the pedal and left him behind.
ErinKC Posted March 31, 2014 Report Posted March 31, 2014 I got a wave! All be it a confused one from what looks like a new CR Paceman with white stripes at Potomac Yard today. I thought it was a Countryman from the front but when I passed and looked in my rear view I thought....oh man...I think that is a Paceman booty! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

VaMike Posted April 3, 2014 Report Posted April 3, 2014 I was driving by PMOA yesterday, top down, and stopped short at the light to let a BRG roadster on a test drive out of the drive in front of me. As we both waited the better part of a minute facing each other and less than 20 feet apart I waved out the top, out the side, gave them a goofy grins - nothing <eyes roll>. Will keep it up.

TGGRRR (Ali) Posted April 6, 2014 Report Posted April 6, 2014 So I was driving home on Friday on 395 south and I see a BRG in the lane to my right. Then I hear an awesome exhaust to my left and it's a JCW. The JCW was blacked out with dark gray stripes, USMC stickers and a license plate that said SHWAT I jumped in behind him and the BRG jumped in behind me. I stuck my hand out the sunroof to wave and I saw the BRG wave and the guy driving the JCW stuck his hand out the window. I was very happy We motored together for about 3 or 4 miles until we each had to exit. heaven!!! Made my commute awesome Tigger 2006 the cabrio and Riversong the 2014 Countryman

mbiedzinski Posted April 14, 2014 Report Posted April 14, 2014 Was that Helljumper and Craig I saw today near the Walmart and KMart on 29 around 6:00 pm?
mbabischkin Posted April 14, 2014 Report Posted April 14, 2014 Got a wave from a white MCS with Maryland BMWCCA plates on I-270S in the Rockville area... I think he may have actually dropped back when he saw me to wave. Was on my way back from a week in Cleveland, got a lot a waves from MINIs out there, more than I normally get out there, and a lot more than I tend to get here... [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
SneakyBaron Posted April 14, 2014 Report Posted April 14, 2014 (edited) Was that Helljumper and Craig I saw today near the Walmart and KMart on 29 around 6:00 pm? Nope wasn't me, wonder if that means Passport sold the orange coupe I saw the last time I was there. Edited April 14, 2014 by SneakyBaron
