I'm in Fairfax close to Woodson H.S. and 495. GTG sounds groovy.

So far out of 13 replies, there are:

MD: 3

NoVA: 7 (includes Manassas and Quantico; you have to be from here to understand...)

Oth VA: 3

Looks like a GTG located in No VA would be most central to all so far. Any shopping center with good coffee and an open parking lot would be a nice location for a first time GTG for the 986forum Mid-Atlantic contingent!

First, thanks to all for the shop recommendations. Second, geeez the tally didn't even include "DC." Maybe my post didn't clearly convey where I'm from.

Yes, I'm sensitive to not being counted -- and not having a congressman ..... You know, a portion of NoVA (Arlington County) was given to us. When we get Arlington back, then we can do the tally!

Best holidays to all.

I'm in centreville. GTG sounds great. I also belong to local NSX group and we get together number of times. Couple of weeks ago, bunch of us went to skyline drive. Open road, some twisty and beautiful foliage. It was great.
Look forward to seeing all of you.

Andy

I'm in Great Falls, VA.

As far as shops go... I use ASG (in Merrifield, within walking distance to the Dunn Loring Metro stop). They are honest and communicate very well with their customers. Taylor is a wizard with newer models -- 986/7, 996/7, GT3/Turbo/GT2, etc. -- especially with suspension set up. Bills usually match estimates, and if they won't they call you.
