To me, the Mille has always been one of the prettiest Guzzis . I really love the way they look in red, the best, but black and gold is very elegant looking! :thumb:

We did the VERY FAST MILLE GT thing already, I think, just a month ago.   

Same comments apply!

It might be fast but it's not SELLING fast, that's for sure.

Agreed.  This lovely example belongs to a guy from New Mexico, I believe, and was seen at Datil a few years ago. :thumb: :cool:

I was a cough cough BMW guy. Sorry. Went to the Indiana Guzzi rally *many* years ago and saw a red Mille. That did it for me. <shrug>

I think it was Cycle World? that did a test on a red one. Even in the magazine it glowed so red it could light up a room.  :wink: I like red, but it was a bit too much red, so I bought a black one instead.
