Patrick parked close to the main footpath entrance into the park, between the only two cars in the small parking lot, which were parked just four spaces apart.
As Patrick walked back to the parking lot with a heightened sense of awareness, he scanned the lot but did not see the man. Patrick surmised that the man had either gotten back in his car or perhaps could even be crouching between the brown Honda and Patrick's car preparing to attack him.
Of the five things Patrick witnessed at the park ((1) the man and his car, (2) the suit jacket, (3) the briefcase, (4) the wine cooler, and (5) the mid-1980s Arkansas brown Honda), the Honda itself is the most relevant.

 Vince Foster: 911 call discovering the body [Free Republic]
If you read the entire transcript, the dispatcher knows that the caller is at the Park Service's maintenance yard and (I gave the benefit of the doubt on this one) he knew or correctly surmised that CW drove from Fort Marcy Park and turned off the highway into the maintenance yard's parking lot.
The fact that the USPP dispatcher was apparently already aware of the presence of a dead body at Fort Marcy Park is likely attributable to the fact that the Park Service worker had first called Fairfax County Fire and Rescue, and then called the USPP.

 Vincent Foster's Car   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
Independent Counsel Kenneth Starr recently issued a report on the death of Vincent Foster concluding, along with all the other official reports, that on July 20, 1993, Foster drove himself to Fort Marcy Park in a gray 1989 Honda, walked to the second cannon, and ended his life by firing a.38 revolver into his mouth.
If we are to accept Starr’s conclusion that Foster drove himself to Fort Marcy Park in his gray 1989 Honda Accord, we have to believe that all three civilian witnesses mistakenly remembered Foster’s 1989 gray Honda as being old and brown.
The evidence that Starr presents for the existence of the mitt is a photograph of it in the glove compartment of the Foster car and the statements by Park Police Investigators Braun and Rolla that they remember seeing the oven mitt in the glove compartment of the car at Fort Marcy Park.

This is an important point since all the official reports indicate that Foster drove himself to Fort Marcy park in his gray four-door1989 Honda Accord LX sedan before committing suicide in the extreme northwest corner of the earthen-walled fort.

 Caught: A Falling Starr -- The Foster Cover-Up
Perhaps it is no coincidence that C4, when shown her Park Police interview report for the first time, told the FBI that the Park Police report had not accurately reflected what she had told the Park Police about the cars in the parking lot.
This witness was interviewed by the Park Police and reported that the vehicle in question was (the total description) "a lighter gray or silver," according to the handwritten notes of her Park Police interview on August 5, 1993.
The Park Police handwritten notes indicating that C6 had seen a "lighter gray or silver" car in the lot at 6:00 PM were not made until August 5, so the beat cop's report is the first mention of a vehicle in the parking lot with any gray to it.
