As I mentioned in another thread, I traded my '12 Buddy 170i for a 2007 Vespa LXV 150 and couldn't be happier. Burke Sandman of Vespa Shelbyville is awesome. He came all the way up here to Lafayette to deliver the LXV and pick up the Buddy.

Here's the LXV sitting outside in the parking lot at my office. The one remaining Italian mod target on the right side will have to stay as it appears there's some significant scratches under it. We pulled the rest of them off easily. (There were 3 - one big and 2 small - per side, and one small one on the horncast. At least they're Vespa brand decals, so the quality is high.)

That's the color of my Brand New Subaru
I still have a Buddy Italia 170i (my wife's) and I got my LX150.

But that color of yours is similar to my new 2014 Subaru Outback we got on Monday.

Getting the hitch installed today so I can drive my scoots everywhere in the USA now!

I'm liking the "look" so far.

Beautiful! You're really going to love it. And I like the target.

Eh, I don't hate it, but don't love it either. It's ok for now. May decide later to pull it and have the body and paint work done.

(With 3 on each side, and one on the front, it was WAY too busy though.)
