In a bit of sad news, the last Yugo rolled off the production line in Serbia last month.

Serbian automaker Zastava, producer of the Yugo, closed its doors to revamp operations in a joint venture with its new owner, Italian automaker Fiat.

Does that mean my Yugo will become a collectable?

I'd rather see the end of GM. at least a Yugo would make people smile.

What's the difference between a shopping cart and a Yugo? A shopping cart is easier to push!

How do you get a Yugo to go 60 miles per hour? Push it over a steep cliff.

How do you double a Yugo's value? Fill up the gas tank!

What comes with every Yugo owner's manual? A bus schedule.

Isn't this a news story from 1985? I thought Yugo folded a long time ago.
