Hee, hee; great show! I saw one of those at the Lane Motor Museum in Nashville. I'm not a car guy, but thouroughly enjoyed the museum. My wife even liked it.

I was in Budapest, and Prague before that. Both are interesting cities for different reasons. Budapest still has more of the "Eastern Block" feel about it. Hungary had quite the battled-over history.

I did not get here: Link but the whole concept is bizarre/fascinating enough that I'd probably visit on a return trip.

The Trabbie was parked on a street in the Castle District of Budapest.

Trabant is proof positive that democracy is the best system.

Not a spin zone comment. Just a fact.

BMW, Trabant.

You make the call...
