Mr Torchinsky pointed out that they are crap cans in the most part however the context should be taken into consideration. The Trabbie, for example, is less of a crapcan than much produced by Detroit in the 90's when you take into account the context.

I’ve had several cars that were unintentionally theft resistant. It makes your car more difficult to steal when you’re the only one that knows how to make it run.

“Properly” “working” “Yugo”

$1500? Man, your coworkers got ripped off.
