A friend of mine just picked up these two runners in AZ; $1500 for the pair.

Anyone recall other rental companies doing this? There was an agency in West Hollywood on the Sunset Strip in the early ‘90s that was renting used Yugos as a sort of loss-leader deal - maybe Rent-A-Wreck? They were pretty popular for a while until, I imagine, the cars all died.
