The Corvair was actually a pretty good vehicle, compromised only by the lack of an anti-sway bar on the base model for the first year. 'Unsafe at Any Speed' was a load of bollocks. Otherwise they didn't handle worse than most vehicles of that era, and better than many. Note the Beetle and early Porsche 911's shared almost identical suspension designs with the Corvair. -- M.
