Hi there, where abouts in the country do you hang your hat..?
Great place for everything Fiat. Don't be afraid to look south of the border, its not really a big pain to import,but you will need an inspection prior to insuring the car.

I'm in Ottawa these days. I had my first Spider down in the Windsor/Detroit area, but moved up here a few years ago.

Thanks for the advice, Chris! I have imported a vehicle before and it is always an option worth considering. In this part of the country, the hard part is not being able to drive it for awhile no matter where you get it from!

Welcome Rick,
I just joined the forum and am also looking for a Spider (my first). Good to have you aboard. Once I got sorted out with wheels, I hope to track down and get to know the rest of the Ottawa-based members.

I've only been a member for less than a month -Terrific & helpful group of members here!
