Many thanks for the pictures!

I think I prefer the style of the older 2013/2014....

I am strongly considering trolling the dealers for a deal on a NOS '13. I do miss my red '11 125 and the affair with the Fly has gone stale.
The PCX is one of only three bikes I regret selling to satisfy my Multiple Bike Disorder. Just can't see the extra $$ for a 2015. Yeah, I'm a tightwad. :lol:

That was where I was too, wanted the 2015, but the discount on a leftover new 2013 was just too much to ignore.
I was out the door for just under $2700, title, plates, tax and all. :o

I was there too and test rode both side by side (Black 2015 and a red 2013). Color and cost difference were a big part of my decision at the time but the more we have the learned about the 2015s - the better the 2013s are. Visibility and top speed to name two.

If you check cycletrader I bet you find some out there at steep discounts at this point.

Visibility? Really? I thought comments on the 2013 PCX was that the lights were not that great, front or rear, and the 2015's led's do quite a good job. Is that not so?

I think the discussion in another thread talked about side visibility. Does your 2015 have side reflectors? Easily fixed. I rarely ride at night.

My next door neighbor here in Thailand has the 2013. I have the 2015. Mechanically the same bike, I think. The enormous difference and the reason to ignore the discounts on the 2013...the LED lighting on the 2015. It is a vast improvement.

I use to hate driving my old scooter at night. I'm 64 and I thought it was night blindness. No, it was just poor headlights. I don't have any problem driving at night anymore. The 2015 PCX is as close to perfection as you can get for this class of motorbike.
