Let em know your other ride is a Vespa

I was just out back and saw something shiny on the back of Michael’s car. Michael had ordered in a chrome Vespa badge and had placed it on the back of his car. It looked great! Your on our site so you obviously know that a Vespa is a lot more fun to cruise on, but if you have to drive a car you might as well let em know your other ride is a Vespa. For only $14 you too can get an authentic chrome Vespa badge for your car, truck, or SUV. Stop on by or give us a ring and we can get one ordered for you today.

A brief visual history of Vespa & Piaggio via the Piaggio Museum

I missed last nights “How It’s Made” starring the iconic Vespa scooter. While trying to find it on youtube, I ran across this great four minute video giving a brief history of the Vespa & Piaggio brand while taking you through Piaggio Museum in Italy. If you have a few minuted to spare, I highly recommend you check this video out.

BIG THANKS TO TODD FROM VESPA LEXINGTON!

We would like to extend a BIG OL THANKS to Todd for his recent purchase of a new super rad 2009 Vespa LXV 150. Welcome to the Vespa Lexington family, Todd! We have been holding off on posting anything about Todd and his new ride, due to the fact that it was a surprise birthday gift for his wife (her birthday was yesterday). Todd gets the Husband of the Year award. I spoke to Todd today and he said the surprise went over BIG TIME! Yesterday they spent all afternoon cruising around on the new ride having a blast.

“Three wheels are better than two”

Kentucky’s own George Clooney spotted riding a Piaggio MP3 via TMZ. The Piaggio MP3 is a blast to ride, you should swing by Vespa Lexington sometime soon and check one out. We currently have a 2009 MP3250 and the 2009 MP3400 sitting on the showroom floor. Thanks for the tip @Scooterdiva

New Vespa T Shirts now available. Comment to WIN all three styles for FREE!

We were pretty excited yesterday when Vespa Lexington received two big boxes full of new t shirts. We are offering three different styles in size s-xxl, each with a super fresh print. They are a little roomier than our last batch of t shirts, so that should make some folks happy, and we are offering xxl now. The pricing is as follows:

1) Vespa Lex Shop Tee (heather gray w/ black Vespa Lex print): $13.50, s-xxl
2) Pacesetter Tee (Dark Gray w/ yellow Vespa racer print): $15.00, s-xxl
3) Coyboy ( silver w/ blue & green cowboy print): $15.00, s-xxl
*If you don’t live in Lexington, can’t swing by Vespa Lexington and would like a t shirt, please give us a ring at 859.523.8555 and we can take your order over the phone, it’s $6.75 for priority shipping.

With the success of our last give-away (we had a grand total of 96 comments), we thought it would be fun to do another give away with these awesome new t shirt. The game is simple; lets pretend you could go back in time, grab a brand new scooter of your choice, and then bring it forward to the present day with you. What scooter would you grab? Post the year, make, and model of the scooter in the comments below. Make sure to include your valid EMAIL ADRESS. Monday night (Monday July 27th) at 3:00 PM we will throw the names in a hat, and draw one winner who will get all three t shirts. Once we have selected a winner, we will shoot you an email to find out sizing and shipping address. Good luck to all! Photos below and more photos after the jump.

Vespa on “How It’s Made”

Are you ready to take a quick trip to Pontedera, Italy to check out how the worlds highest quality scooter is manufactured? Ready to find out why Vespa has the highest resale and highest consumer report ratings? If you answered yes to both of those questions, your in luck:

“This Friday you and your customers can visit the Vespa production plant in Pontedera, Italy from the comfort of your own homes! The Science Channel’s “How It’s Made” television program will begin airing a segment on the production of Vespa scooters on Friday July 24, 2009 at 9:00pm ET.

For those of you not familiar with the program, the title is self explanatory. Each segment serves as a mini-documentary on the manufacturing process of a product generally known to the public. In this episode viewers will see first hand how a Vespa is produced; from the beginning stages of development where the steel monocoque frame is welded together straight through to the finished product.” -Piaggio press release

I am pretty pumped up about watching this. For additional details visit this link Science Channel’s How It Is Made.
