Those guys are funny... but they don't know jack about cars.
Everything has to be in the US model of what the hell transportation is
about. I have owned a couple Fiats (124 Sport Coupe, 128 Sport Coupe,
x1/9). Not meant for the average american 'drive it till it drops'
mentality.  But fun, fast, and more reliable than Pintos, Vegas, and
Horizons.
Now I own a Vanagon or three. Frustrating? Hell yes. But, fun to drive,
useful.
Yugos are cute and work well in their environment. Been there, seen
that.
All the 'merican crap they listed... just the tip of the iceburg.
