Hi and welcome!
sounds like the right choice with your knowledge of this forum! My car purchase was impulsive too, prior favorites were the VW beetle convertible and a Renault Fuego. This purchase was in 1988 and it's still the same car!
Can we see some pics of your car? You know other Spider owners in WA?
Can we get you car data for the worldwide Spider Register, which already lists 268 cars in Washington State:

Thanks and good luck to you!
