Comments by "CalBob750" (@calbob750) on "Ep. 3 The Compact Cars of the Early 1960's" video.
I owned a 1964 Corvair. Like the Volkswagen the engine in the rear caused serious oversteer. In other words if you went into a corner too fast you would go off road rear end first. This was known by GM and corrected In 1964 and beyond with sway bars added to the suspension to prevent this. One advantage the Corvair had was that it had great traction in the snow. If you lived in the “snow belt” you would appreciate the better traction that a rear engine car offered.
