I was in Dresden last week. My friend there arranged to rent a Trabant. We arrived, and my other buddy (a Brit, of course) sees a convertible is an upgrade option, so of course we had to do that.

It looked way better than its 26bhp deserve: Zwickau never produced anything this sporty! It easily got more attention than anything else I’ve ever driven, and not just because a 600cc 2-stroke sounds like the world’s largest chainsaw motor.
