Sadly this was never made.
They were choices of designs for the 2012 FLE and 2 other designs were picked instead, both sold out.

Oh well, here's wishing. Maybe next year with some Tritium tubes?

Any thoughts on the value of these blue scooter c60 FLEs now that CW has released the "normal" c60 in the EXACT same color scheme? One thing I don't know is if it is the EXACT same shade of blue-on-blue? Since we live in a market-driven world, the move by CW doesn't (really) surprise me as it is a very attractive color combo and am (a bit) pleased to see it was added to the "regular" offerings but just wondering if it doesn't drive the value of these limited editions down a bit as anyone can now get one with this color combo. Thoughts?

PS - As some of you here already know, I REALLY also wanted one of the C700 Grand Rapide's but (so far) have not been willing to fork over the $'s for it so if anyone knows of someone wanting to part with one for say... :shock: ... 50% of the original price, let me know.

PPS - I just got my CW magazine and found the C7 in red on page 28 so now I want that as well to match my motorcycle. Ah, it is a material cruel world in which we live, is it not? :lol:

Good luck getting a C60 Scooter for half price. I don't see that happening.

The colors are distinctly different in real life. Here is a good thread that shows some color comparisons, but the difference is much greater than the photos show.

The C60 scooter has been selling well over its introductory price. I don't think the recent intro of the C60 Trident blue will change that as only 50 were available of the FLE.

I think you'll find that your number 6 blue scooter will always hold it's value.

It is one of a band of 50 and is a different hue to Chris's recent addition.

It's definitely a different blue, and much the better for it.

If you are looking to sell scooter 006 then I'd be delighted to make you an offer!

I'd be delighted to make you an offer for scooter 006 if you are interested in moving it on! But somehow I doubt it!

If you ever want to move on scooter 006 to fund a C700 I'd be delighted to do that deal! In my dreams! :grin:
