Ecosystem

Parisian Restaurant — Mia's Lemonade Stand offers the light aqua scooter (also available in red/dark red in Parisian Restaurant) at a much lower price point and in a smaller set, making it excellent value. Parisian Restaurant is significantly more expensive.

White motorcycle (1987-1996) — New scooter mold is an improvement: offers exchangeable handles suitable for different minifigure types, allows Friends minifigures to sit more elegantly with natural posture, and has better ergonomics for both classic minifigs and ladyfigs. Old motorcycle required minifigs to move forward unnaturally to reach handles.
