In America (Massachusetts), a rare ZAZ 965 was put up for sale. Of course, for the USA, this is a wild exotica, so the price is appropriate – $18,000! For such an amount overseas, you can buy a 2-3-year-old Ford Mustang convertible. And not beaten, almost new and with minimal mileage. 
Year of manufacture: 1965
Mileage: 39,000 miles
As the seller writes, “Zaporozhets is known for its excellent characteristics on bad roads thanks to its independent suspension and engine mounted on the driving wheels, which allows them to carry 60% of the total car mass.
Another interesting feature of the ‘Zaporozhets’ is the absolutely flat chassis. Thus, it is almost impossible to break anything when descending from the paved road. If someone managed to get stuck somewhere, the curb weight of the ZAZ 965 of only 665 kg (1466 lbs) allowed literally to get out of the car, lift it, put it back on a stable surface and continue the trip.”
Moreover, the author of the advertisement writes that for the USSR, the hunchbacked Zaporozhets was like the Volkswagen Beetle or Trabant in Europe. It is worth noting that four years earlier, a black hunchbacked Zaporozhets (such a color never existed) was sold in the USA for $15,000. Additionally, we remind that not so long ago a later ZAZ-968A from 1980 was sold in America, emphasizing that the exact same Zaporozhets was Putin’s first car.
