That is a good price.  MG is offering $1000 off on the V9's and most of the V7's as a Summer Special.

That's what my closest dealer was asking for '17 Stones back in July.

Of course you want to ask about the OTD price.  There have been more than a couple cases where the advertised price was a low ball teaser but by the time you saw all the dealer add-on's the OTD price was considerably more.  Yes, the guy has to make a living.

That wasn’t my experience when I was there. Ask them about 8V flat tappets...

I just bought a 2016 Stornello for $6899, so for a Stone this isn't unreasonable.

I saw a nice red and white Roamer in the west coast cycle trader for like 6900.  Good time to buy unless you are playing the long game.... (Guzzi geezer optional content.)
