If you love Italian style and American design, you'll want to hold back about $5,999USD to buy the 2007 Limited Edition [Vespa](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vespa-946-dragon) LX 50 in a Custom 'Crazy Stripe' Design by Gap. This [colorful vroom-machine](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/honda-square-x125-scooter) will be available beginning November 8. Details on how to purchase this bike will be available at http://www.gap.com/vespa. I think this is a fine example of popular companies taking advantage of rising gas prices and influencing the eco-conscience youth.

**Implications** - And Gap is a company best known for its [speciality campaigns and advertising](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/iscooter). This is an interesting way to celebrate Gap's legendary crazy stripe, but this unique gift is a way to win the hearts and minds of consumers around the world.
