You've got three, right Jim?
$1500 for the fleet!
Gotta consider shipping and all :lol:
If it makes you feel any better, the weather is crap in Florida too, at least, south west Florida.

patience, my friend. I bought my first 124 spider, a new one, on June 6, 1971 in Eugene Oregon. I didn't put the top down for the first 30 days due to rain. :cry: Now, while the beautiful Arizona spring is quickly passing me by, the spider sits in the garage being assembled....maybe fall.

I feel your pain Jim.
Took my car out last night for a run to the pub for dinner as it was nice and sunny (finally) Woke up this morning to increasing cloud and more rain this afternoon. Going to put the spider back in the carport to wait for a break in the continual cloud and rain we've been having :cry:
Hope the fathers day weekend is nice , so I can enjoy a 400km run to Van for the Best of Italy and France car show.
And this is supposed to be the driest , warmest part of Canada.

Jim,
I hate to be "that guy" but I'll rub it in and brag about the climate here in Fort Collins, CO.
We average about 15% humidity all year-round with over 300 days of sunshine and temps are pretty mild.
We get less than 15" of precipitation per year.
For me, personally, it's perfect Spider weather.
Move to Colorado.
The whole world thinks we are continuously under 20 feet of snow, but that's only up at 10,000 feet in the mountains.
The front range is actually "semi-arid" and very pleasant climate for those who are sick and tired of constant rain and snow and humidity. (I grew up in Maryland and Pennsylvania)
It's a best-kept secret. --------oops.
Dave
