Don't you diss on Yugo. Over here in ex YU countries where the thing was built, you can still see them on the road here and there. People like to pimp them up.

Mind you, the last one was produced in 2008.

I had a friend who was 6'6" in the US who bought a new Yugo back in 1988/89. Seeing that giant get in and out of that 2 seater was just... fun

i have mixed feelings on the yugo. it's objectively a terrible car with stock parts, but the sheer space in the engine bay makes it a dream for tuners to mod - i've even seen someone cram a twincharged LS V8 in one, and it actually was driveable.

I guess its nice knowing that no matter what you do to the car, you literally can only make it better.
