Site Jalopnik has announced that Vespa will be running a contest coinciding with the release of this summer's Transformers Movie.

If you head out to a Vespa Dealership and test drive a Vespa scooter between June 14th and June 24th, you'll get a free ticket to see Transformers in theatres and your name will be entered in a draw to one your very own Vespa scooter like the one seen in the movie! See the original announcement on Jalopnik here.

In other news, there will apparently be a Vespa scooter in the Transformers Movie...

Do you need a license to drive one of those things? If so, I'll have to pass, even if I did have the money to buy one (which i don't :sad: ).

Could you imagine a Vespa TF in the movie? The heroic Autobot Half-Pint!

On a side note, I hope I get some laughs for the thumbnail I put to this story in the News section, I think it's pretty à propos...

I'd think GM would get some stuff, too.

There's a dealer near me...I could do it.

I just don't know if I have the balls to walk up, hand them the slip and say I'm here to use this promotion. I can't even remotely afford your fine product, but I'll use you to get what I want.

...yeah...

OR!!! Avoid the pesky salesman that will take up an hour of your time trying to sucker you in to buying one, spend the $8-$10 and just go see the movie. :)
