I love to get a hold of one of those. After the wall feel the trabants were a dime a dozen. Now they are collectors items to some.

They barely made 30 MPH at top speed and were always breaking down. It’s just another example of government incompetence. And of course GM, now owned by hussein’s regime, is producing nothing but junk since the takeover.

The Trabant was based on what was going to be a Fiat (as in Fix It Again, Tony) back in the late 50's early 60's. But it was so poorly engineered and obsolete, even the suits at Fiat were too embarrassed to build it. It made the Yugo look good.

I wish all liberals could experience the glories of communism first hand. "The worker's paradise." My father never got tired of calling it that.
