Default What I saw yesterday, worth a look if you like econoboxes

I found this in the parking lot yesterday at school, and I must say, this is the first Yugo i've ever seen, and it looks like it's in pretty good shape!









My car next to it:

And they come from Yugoslavia, hence Yugo.

And taken from wikipedia.org, concerning the Mackinac Island Bridge in Michigan:

Two vehicles have gone off the bridge: a Yugo was blown off the bridge during a particularly bad windstorm in 1989 (high speed may have also been to blame), and a sport utility vehicle drove off the bridge in 1997 (this may have been a suicide).

Oh man.. I use to have a blue one.. The thing was a blast haha. I picked it up for 200 bucks and just drove the **** out of it. Me and my friends jumped that pos so many times.

It took alot of abuse... But it caught fire out in the woods one day when we where "Rallying" it. lol.. good times.

Looks a lot like the older GTI. Looks to be in damn good shape for its age. Especially for a Yugo hahaha.
