Vespa 946

[TheAceFace]

Does anyone know if this will be released here, if so any guess on price. This has got me wanting one http://www.vespa946.com/en/global.html

Why do they call it 946 when the engine is a lousy 125cc, have Ducati bought Vespa?

Don't know if it will be sold here, if it does, expect it to be expensive.

It looks nice though.

this thread needs some pix... she's a beauty... maybe the first vespa that looks better than the LX150...

HLF says that the engine is manufactured in Italy - which is a bummer as it probably means that the whole thing will be made in Italy for the time being, and we'll have to pay 2x the fair price for it. Wish they made it in Vietnam. If it comes in at any sort of reasonable price, this thing would sell like hotcakes in Thailand... everyone appreciates a good design.

price will be 8000_9000 EUROS , so forget it !!! just a dream

I don't think the price will be that high, if so nobody will buy them.

Where did you get that price from?

I think the cheapest Vespa in Thailand cost about 100.000 bath but okay made in Vietnam.

Here is a link to Vespa Thailand but nothing about the 946 and no prices too.

946 relates to 1946, a historical year for the Vespa

It looks like you are right regarding the price, between 7-9000 Euro, bloody hell.

8000 eu's is app. 312K bath and that's without import tax.

It's more ugly than pretty....in a stylish way.

My Vespa 300 GTS SS which was also imported from Italy was 325,000 THB I would expect a 125 to be significantly cheaper. The Vespas handle really well but 125 cc is a bit small as they are quite heavy.

Have no clue why anyone would pay that much for a scooter. your just shy of a new car

Not so sure of the birth place of your bike either

The first letter or digit of the VIN number will tell you where it's made. Italian-made bikes usually begin the VIN number with a "Z".

[pbas400]

will be made in Italy (only)

have high technology inside, new ABS, ASR ... and the price is too expensive !! it s a Premium Vespa

8k EUR for a 125cc... that's shocking even if it is the best looking scooter ever. Good luck with that Vespa I don't think they'll sell too many of those... double the price for import into Thailand....

Seeing more news about these being released. Anybody know if they will be available in Thailand, emailed Piaggio but had no response.

We apologise but the Vespa 946^® booking service is not currently available in your Country.

If you really want one you will have to import one yourself. Go to Red Baron or another grey market bike importer and ask them to get you one.

Thanks VN

Will look into that, although the import duty and service would probably not be much less than the bike
