Yugo To Go

Hey, remember the Yugo car (also called Zastava Koral)? Zastava is the company who builds the car.The car that only cost $3,990. It was born in 1975 and "died" in the US in 1989 (but is still alive and kicking in Serbia). It wasn't until 1989 that this car, made in Serbia (Yugoslavia) was imported by Malcolm Bricklin, into the US until 1991. That car, was so bad, it didn't take long for the sales to suffer. Also, the political situation in East Europe at the time, affected the sales in the US.
