It does surprise me the Yugo had ever been available in the American market. It wouldn't be so pointless to sell Brazilian and Argentinian Fiats there instead, considering local versions of the Fiat Uno and its derivatives (Duna sedan and station-wagon, and the Fiorino pick-up and van) were exported even to Europe. And since the Yugo AFAIK relies on the same floorpan of the Fiat 127 and most Brazilian Fiats until '96 when the Palio started resorting to a rear torsion-beam axle, I'm not sure to which extent it would be so "unfixable" for my standards
