Welcome! I'm from F'burg as well. There's a local F-Body club you can check out (see link below). We meet the first Saturday of every month, even in the winter. The locations change from meet to meet to keep things fresh and so that the same people don't have to drive a bazillion miles every time. We've met in F'burg, Manassas, Rockville, and other places. Stop by the forum below and say hi.

None that I know of, but you'd have to look around. There's one place on Rt1, just a little north of Four Mile Fork (intersection of Rt1 and Lafeyette Blvd/Courthouse Rd), called Select Motorcars that has a decent selection of sports cars from time to time. Here's their website: http://www.selectmotorcars.com/

Hope to see you at the next meet whether you have an F-Body or not.

Thanks Marc,
I actually know those guys in there. Great people. His lead salesmen actually sold me my first car (1997 Maxima 5 speed).
