Vespa Sei & PX & ET & LX & GT

This group of Vespas represents a significant evolution from the brand's classic era. The PX series, launched in 1977, is the quintessential vintage-style Vespa for many, retaining the 2-stroke engine and 4-speed manual twist-grip shifter. In 1996, the ET series marked a major shift, introducing the modern 'twist-and-go' automatic transmission and 4-stroke engines that would define the LX and larger-framed GT series. Limited editions like the Sei Giorni pay homage to Vespa's racing past and are instantly collectible.

Collectors appreciate these models for different reasons. The PX offers a direct connection to Vespa's heritage with a more analog riding experience. The modern ET, LX, and GT series combine timeless Italian style with everyday usability, making them perfect urban commuters that still stand out. Rarity and historical significance drive the value of models like the Sei Giorni, which are produced in limited numbers and feature unique styling cues like its fender-mounted headlight.

The market for these Vespas is broad. The average sale price of over $13,000 is heavily skewed by the Sei Giorni, which can sell for more than $50,000. Well-preserved PX models maintain steady value, while the more common automatic scooters like the ET and LX represent an accessible entry point into the Vespa world, with prices starting around $1,500 for riders. Low-mileage, well-maintained examples of any model are seeing steady appreciation.

Prices range from approximately $1,500 for project scooters to more than $53,000 for rare limited editions.
