The weren't "extremely rare" in the late 1980s and early 1990s...but as time has passed, there are fewer of them around. They were never quality vehicles and had a higher than average failure rate. It also never helped that they were sold as an alternative to a used car and people who buy low end cars do not typically take care of their cars (regular tune ups, oil changes, etc).

Yugos are still around and you can pick up a "nice one" for well under $1,000.
