Looks like it's around $14,500.... right?

Yep, plus shipping, taxes etc.

Looks like it copied the BMW Isetta. I had one in sixties. Got it for $50 and my sister used it in High School and I used it at college. Sold it for $450. It's now worth more than $30,000 if you can find one.

Didn't the Isetta have a rubber driveshaft? If I recall, they also had a canvas roof so you had a way out in case of front accident.

No. Not a rubber drive shaft but a rubber U-joint. It was a strange hookup. My brother also had an Isetta. The rubber U-joint was broken and he couldn't find a replacement (no internet in those days). He just left it in his garage covered with a tarp. When he retired he sold it for around $15,000. He only paid around $800 for it. They are worth much more now.
My Isetta had a canvas sunroof and also a canvas and clear plastic rear windscreen that folded down.

I think this is neat looking (inside of it). Perhaps safer than the Isetta that it was inspired by?

The red/white color scheme looks just like those childrens toy cars from 20 years ago.

Thinking of retro fits on older designs, I'm thinking the new Mini Cooper electric when it comes out might be a very practical size/shape for everyday use. Probably too expensive but I can dream.

I think the Isetta invented the first "suicide door"!
