Yeah, they tried selling a Yugoslavian car called the Yugo here in the mid '80s. It was incredibly cheap-$4300, IIRC, & initially, they sold pretty well. But the bloom soon left the rose-it was basically a 10-15 yr old Fiat design to begin with, & the cars were pretty much junk. I don't know of anyone who bought a SECOND Yugo. I can't remember the last time I saw one.
