Try 21122 which is a Maryland code. All you had to do was look up a US business in the area you're looking and use their zip.

I'm sure there have been more than one meetings in America where some web designer has been checking their usage stats and proudly stating that their site is very popular amongst the more affluent zipcodes in the Los Angeles area not realising that's the only zipcode us foreigners know of by heart.

Try craigslist.com and eBay (I've noticed that people take time to list cars on the US eBay site. Nice pictures, good writup etc not like the UK, "I'll take a pic from my bedroom window, that'll be fine" hehe although not as popular as the UK)
