Last Yugo built...
 

The last Yugo, once the pride of communist Yugoslavia’s automobile industry, will roll off its Serbian production line Thursday in the central town of Kragujevac.
Over 100,000 Yugo GVs — standing for Great Value — were sold in the U.S. for
$3,990, before Yugo America — the company that imported it — went bankrupt and Washington imposed economic sanctions on Belgrade for fomenting ethnic wars in the Balkans in 1992.
“This is driving in its most natural form. You feel every bump, squeak and jolt, and one can enjoy the sweet smell of gasoline and exhaust fumes,” he said. “No car can replace it.”

Why does a Yugo have a defroster on the rear window?

To keep your hands warm while you push it.

For those of you that don't know what a yugo looks like, this is it right off of the production line.

very cool, I almost forgot about the yugo.

I had no idea they were still building that P*S!

Good statement. And that's while the car is parked. Which it mostly was.

Ethnic strife in that region has existed forever. No, the sanctions were for exporting that junkmobile.

Quite a blast from the past. I still remember that stupid $3995 commercial. Thanks! :)
