Communists - That time when 100 million people died wasn't REAL communism, comrade

Honestly, I would like to drive a Yugo once. It's a bad car, but it's so iconic and so eccentric, being a Communist car that showed up in every damned used car lot in the USA in the 70's and 80's.

At least Yugoslavia had something to be proud of after the death of their leader, before they ended up destroying themselves.

EDIT: Really, this place seem so ideal if only because they did have more choices thanks to trading on both sides of the Iron Curtain.

True story. I installed a stereo and speakers into my friend's Yugo. After wiring everything up, the windshield wipers turned on. Given that the wires for the wipers were in the steering column, I have no idea how that happened.

You do not understand glorious Yugoslavian engineering and you will soon be removed like kebab.

They are communist wipers and take the power from the rest of the car to the wipers from the capitalist pig stereo because that's how redistribution works.
Yugos don't have distributor caps, they have RE-distributor caps :P

Don't forget the Trabant too, a car made of "duroplast" (a form of plastic) and powered by a 2 stroke engine, with years long waiting lists to buy when new.

There is one car that is better than a Yugo, and that's the Kaengsaeng 88 which was made in North Korea.

The only photo ever of it

So when the South Koreans began designing and producing cars from scratch, the dictator Kim Il-sung ordered his minions to show that the North could build cars, too. Except they had no clue what they were doing. The North Korean automotive “engineers” imported several Mercedes 190Es and copied most of the parts with workmanship that made the Yugo look like a Rolls-Royce. The result was the Kaengsaeng 88. Allegedly, it had a four-cylinder engine, no heat, and no air conditioning, and the cabin was prone to fill with dust while driving. Kaengsaeng made several examples, and this one was spotted in the capital, Pyongyang, in 1989. It is possibly the only photo of this vehicle ever taken..
