Chevrolet car built from 1960-1969. First popular American car built with a RR (rear-engined, rear-wheel drive) drivetrain layout, and a horizontally opposed engine. It was popular in all model-years it was produced, although its sales were diminished beginning in 1965 following the introduction of the Ford Mustang and Ralph Nader's report "Unsafe at Any Speed", which attacked the Corvair for having stability problems and dangerous fuel systems(although Chevrolet did correct these problems in 1965). The Corvair was one of the first "import killers" manufactured, being small, sporty, and economical. The simple Horizontally-Opposed 164 cu. 6-cylinder engine was easy to service and required little maintnence, and got excellent gas mileage. It was the only car to incorporate a 4-wheel fully independent suspension system (besides the Corvette) in the 1960's, one of the first two cars to use a turbocharger, and the first car to feature a folding rear seat for additional cargo room.

A 1960's piece of shit that Chevrolet produced to piss off Americans thus leading them to purchase higher quality cheaper Japanese pieces of shit. Now considered a collectors item as it is amazing any survived this long without spontaneously combusting while being pushed down the road after breaking down. Typically driven by communist middle aged men named Al with unresolved homosexual issues.

A 1966 Chevrolet Corvair with a bad assed 350 Chevy in the back seat, owned by Craig Hall in Montana. He is a "Jack Wad". Ralph Nader hates Corvairs & Jack Wads. However, Nader is the biggest Jack Wad of them Hall. (See Jack Wad)
Did you see that Jack Wad Craig Hall in his Yellow & Black V8 Corvair doing burnouts infront of Ralph Naders house?
