$24,000 for a one-seat car, err 3 wheeled bike, is kinda steep. If it were a 1/4 of that, it'd be sweet.

Personally I think they're pretty lame. It probably cost more than a bike, it is only a one seater(most bikes can carry two), it's no safer than a bike really, and I'm sure it's heavier and slower then a bike. The only reason I could understand someone wanting one of these for is if they had no balance and couldn't ride a bike or just had waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyy too much money on their hands.

Similar (or maybe the same) as the vehicle they drive in some of the Ruff Ryders videos. Interesting to say the least.

Made by Campagna, not too far from here (In Canada) we regularly see some of them downtown Montreal during summer time. Really nice... erh, vehicle.

The Merlin is no more, Corbin motors went belly up last year, they never could get their electric car (sparrow - seen in Austin Powers movie) off the ground, and the merlin was a Vtwin cruiser that had one major flaw, it was a sexy looking ONE seater, the people who would want something like that, wants something to pick up chicks, and with the merlin you have no where to put them.

For a 3 wheel, get a T-Rex, that thing is sick.
