Ah yes. The infamous ZAZ Trivia. Powered by black market Buick windshield wiper motors. Used a torsion bar suspension...that is, a bunch of torsion bars welded together to make a solid axle because they couldn't afford to cast their own axles. Body made of terra cotta, painted with a roller.

#5, Also not too far off, but the one above was a real production car... people paid money for it.

#7, Stats? Well... it named the "AWS Shopper" and about 1500 were produced in Germany in the mid-70s. It was basically the plan to sell the customers home grown 50s-era technology, exploiting the oil crisis. Despite of this idea, its fuel consumption was crappy, the engine, if it would function at all, pushed the thing to no more than 40mp/h, the roof was connected to the car via duct tape, to open the trunklid you would have to unscrew it, the gearbox was like playing the lottery and the whole shitburger wasnt watertight. Some think of it as being the worst automobile in modern history.
