DISQUS

That's the old Corbin Sparrow...did a quick search and apparently they went belly up. Guess they sold them to MM. But if you look at this site they used to cost about $14k...talk about inflation in 7 years!

Yup - it is the old Corbin Sparrow. My old roommate has a green one. Supprised to see them come back around again as if they were new.

Sure Corbin went belly up.. anytime you sell something for 14 grand that costs 22 grand to build you'll soon go bankrupt! While the NmG may look like a Sparrow all its major components have been upgraded and made more reliable.. I own one and love it and while you might think it ugly I'll guarantee you that you could drive a Lamborghini and not get the attention or satisfaction that driving one of these babies will get you!!

All of these small electric autos are nice but cost of production, distribution and adverticing outway the sale price. Perhaps a number of these autos could be introduced into a community for use by elderly, students or something. But it would need to be leased for a small fee until it catches on. Remember the electric car from Chevy, their mistake was not wider distribution in the US. Had Chevy done that you would see them still on the road and more in demand. I would like to see it in my hometown of Osceola Iowa.
