I beat a Yugo (It was smoking pretty badly) on the 605 Freeway with my Geo Metro just now. Is this a proud moment or what?

 

I have no idea what a Geo metro is but if you are proud of beating a Yugo, then it must be the biggest bag of automotive dung on four wheels.

AnDy-

You are absolutely correct. Perhaps a 10% improvement over the Trabant. Maybe 15% improvement over a John Deere lawn tractor.

 

You haven't seen my post to your thread on all the great reasons to own the Geo:

Driving to work today, I saw one of these babys. It was so hot I am seriously considering dumping that over-priced, over-powered S2000. Oh Baby.



This Yugo-beating behavior is really tipping the scales ... where is that Chevy dealer ... look out sales guy, here I come !!!
