Almost....

Over the last weekend we received 14" on snow at the new store but construction continues, and the finish line is in site. The lights are up and the bathroom is finished, the desk is also in place. As the pictures show it's looking great! All thats left is minor details; final painting, trim and lighting. The sign is also up on the outside which looks great at night, very bright, and once the large tree in front has been moved it will be clearly seen from the road.









In other news the new GTV has arrived and I will post picture when we bring it over from storage. On the MP3 front the buzz is still building and we will be participating in the national open house on April 19th. There will be a demo unit and test rides will be available. This date will also most likely coinside with our open house for the new store. Look here and on the main page for updates.








Enjoy the snow, think spring!

Construction Update






Soon, very soon. Construction has been continuing at a brisk place and it's turning out great, as the pictures show. The floors have been finished and most of the trimming is done. Soon it will be brimming with scoots and then hopefully customers. There will be a sitting area and plenty of room to sit on and walk around the scooters. A lot of the Vespa dealerships have the scoots crammed in so close that you have to pull them out to sit on them, we wanted the opposite. As with all construction projects time schedules have been longer then planned, and costs have grown, but if the finished product looks this good it's worth the wait.

Enjoy the ride and think Spring!

MP3 BUZZ!



As many of you know and the few of you that don't soon will, Piaggio has a new model coming out called the MP3. As you can see from the pictures the new scoot has two front wheels. Which means better stability and control in all situations. But the best part is you still ride it like a two-wheeler. Visit the link to see videos of this machine in action. We got a chance to ride the MP3 and it's everything we hoped for and more. It has lots of storage and good wind protection, plus the motor is the same as used in the Vespa GTS, it's got good power and reliability.
Jeff stands at 5'5" just to give you a reference point on the size of the MP3. Most of the pictures make the scooter look bigger than it is but really it's sized just right. This model will be in our showroom hopefully by mid-march, and we already have some deposits taken but there will be units available for test rides and sale. MSPR is set at 7000.00 plus shipping, taxes and fees. Reserve yours today!
Think Spring!
