Big Guy

Hello from Montreal Canada

Hy Gang!

 

I'm from Montreal where there is not much 916/Spider on the road. I would say if we are more than 50 then we are 51... :) . I got my 1996 Spider on May 2011 from a guy whom brough it from Germany.

 

At first I wanna trade the wifey's New Beetle convertible for a Z4 or a Boxster and when looking around I noticed that alomost everybody has one. So I started looking for a MGB or TR6 and surprisingly spotted a black 1996 Alfa Romeo Spider. Knowing nothing about Alfas I turned to my coworker-friend who has 2 Alfa and showed him the add. His face said everything and right away we left work to look at the car.On the way he teached me Alfa 101 and about the 916/Spider rare exclusivity here in Quebec.

 

It was love at first sight as soon as the car cover was pelled off. This black Italian convertible had to be mine... And it was a few days after. And guest what? For the price I got it the wife kept her VW.

 

When bringing Romeo home I can't say how proud I was, and still is four summers later, to look at people's faces seeing the Spider for their first time.

 

I will post some pictures/photos as soon as I downsize them to the right format.

 

Cheers, :hello:

 

Big Guy.
