	Trabant
		Trabant cars have a bad reputation and are often regarded to be amongst the worst ever produced.
		Trabants became known in the West after the fall of the Berlin Wall when many were abandoned by their eastern owners after migrating west.
		In the 1990s, the Trabant became suddenly and indirectly famous when it upset the famous "Class A" by Mercedes-Benz while performing the common "elk test" (a sort of slalom with small obstacles on the course).

	Autosoviet: TRABANT
		The Trabant, more than all the other Eastern cars, was the real symbol of the division of the world in two parts, until the fall of the Berlin Wall, in the 1989.
		The Trabant "P-601" (or simply "Trabant"...it's the same!), during these years, has signed the days of work and entertainement of the Eastern Germans; a car that was "servant" and "companion" simple and cheap.
		The Trabant is perfect, as relic of "industrial archeology" (like 2CV, Beetle, Mini and -to remain in the field of the eastern cars- the Yugo), to be painted, modified, tuned in a million of ways!

	sam.carana - The Trabant model of Science (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		The Trabant is an example of a government policy that aims to give a single supplier monopoly control over a sector of society or to put a cartel of selected suppliers in control.
		But that model is in itself a specific political and socio-economic model and, yes, I am questioning the validity of this model, because it's part of the Trabant framework, it's part of the way things are classified in the Trabant model with the purpose of avoiding that the Trabant model itself will be questioned.
		Trabant model of manufacturing and controlling the car industry was abandoned, science itself might await a similar fate.

		During the 5 years I owned my Trabant, it became a real friend to me. Together we managed many, many kilometers between Halle (D) and Chemnitz (D) (2 hours), Halle and Bochum (D) (6 hours) as well as Halle and Grenoble (F) (14 hours).
		Interesting were all the trips around Grenoble in the French alps, because the two-stroke-engine is very small (it doesn't break the car very much) and is lubricated via the petrol-mix.

	1958 Trabant
		If the Beetle was an important symbol of German post-war diligence, the Trabant was probably even more: a symbol of stamina and determination to finally go through the Berlin Wall –; without being stopped by border guards.
		An estate model followed in 1960, called Trabant 601, it was far more attractive, although its body made of Duroplast, a mixture of cotton and ground wood pulp, soaked in artificial resin –; attracted a good deal of scorn.
		As VW was eventually to take over the Zwickau plant, it was no coincidence that the last Trabis were built with Polo engines, finally eliminating the smell of two-stroke mix.

	Trabant: Moment of Truth - PopMatters Music Review
		In the case of Trabant it may just be that the owner's manuals didn't come in Icelandic.
		Whatever the case, Þorvaldur Gröndal and Viðar Hákon Gíslason (who have christened their collaboration in honor of the utilitarian East German automobile) have produced an album that has more in common with a sly nudge and a playful wink rather than an earnest (yet mind numbingly dull) soul baring confessional.
		Somewhere between Air's suave and Beck's spaz, Trabant have carved out a comfortable niche for their own brand of quirky electronica.

	Autosoviet: TRABANT
		La Trabant "P-601" (o chiamiamola semplicemente "Trabant", tanto la vettura è sempre quella...) ha regolato le giornate di lavoro e di svago dei tedeschi orientali, "serva" e "compagna" modesta e fedele, che chiedeva assai poco in confronto a ciò che dava, in attesa di tempi migliori.
		E' a questo punto che la Trabant, dalla semplice sostanzialità di "motovetturetta" povera e scomoda, passa allo "status" di oggetto d' arte, oppure a quello di argomento sociologico e storico.
		sostanzialmente una "Trabant 1100" (vedi) ridisegnata nel muso, ennesimo tentativo (assai poco riuscito, come si può vedere...) di "aggiornare" ancora la vecchia carrozzeria anni '60, in mancanza di modelli nuovi.
