SELLER REMARKS

Forget all that Ralph Nader nonsense, because this 1968 Chevrolet Corvair Monza hardtop is the sporty car that GM wanted to build from the start. No spooky handling, plenty of power from the air-cooled flat six hanging out back (sound familiar?), and an interior that's got plenty of Camaro DNA running through it, all for less than the price of the smallest, most boring economy car you can buy today.

The Corvair got a bad name early on, and that was surely part of why it didn't survive, but if you read the enthusiast press of the period, they flat-out LOVED this car. By 1968, all the bugs had been worked out and the restyle a few years earlier had transformed the awkward-looking early Corvairs into a sleek, sporty coupe that wouldn't look out of place next to a Corvette or Camaro. This one was originally green, but at some point it got an appealing burgundy metallic paint job that highlights its sporty nature. Finish quality is decent, with a few flaws here and there and some signs of use, but at this price, nobody's going to complain. A chin spoiler works with a Camaro-esque ducktail spoiler on the rear deck lid to give this neat little car a very aggressive demeanor. The chrome bumpers look good, there's a bit of stainless brightwork to add some interest, and the overall look is of a car that's been properly enjoyed with many years to go.

The interior is a neat place to hang out, and the first thing you'll notice is the totally flat floors that make it feel spacious inside. Black bucket seats are not especially fancy, but they do have a handsome pattern that gives the affordable Corvair an upscale look. The wood-rimmed wheel isn't authentic but warms up the otherwise monochromatic passenger compartment a bit, and you do get a fully array of instruments, including a factory tach. A long T-handle Hurst shifter manages the 4-speed manual gearbox, which is the enthusiast's best choice in a Corvair. There's also an AM/FM/cassette stereo in the dash that sounds decent and makes this a fun car to drive every day. And unlike its German competition, there's a good-sized trunk up front, which also houses the dual-reservoir master cylinder.

The 164 cubic inch flat-six engine sits low in the chassis out back and inhales through a set of four 1-barrel carburetors to make a very sporting 140 horsepower. It starts with a characteristic wooshing of the big fan in the middle, and out on the road makes plenty of torque to have fun with some much bigger cars. Handling is the Corvair's strong suit once GM sorted out the underpinnings, and the fully independent suspension rides over bumps like a hovercraft and hangs on in corners like a sports car. Brakes are reasonably effective, particularly since the car's so light, and the twin exhaust systems give it a throaty sound that you'll enjoy when you blip the throttle. The body pans are in good order and slightly oversized Rally wheels look right and allow the use of fatter 195/75/14 front and 215/70/14 rear radials to give it a little bit of a rake.

Outfitted the way an enthusiast would want it, this neat Corvair promises fun all out of proportion with its price tag. Perhaps you should look more closely, because there's a very good reason why Corvairs are so beloved by their owners. Call today!

Chevy Traverse, Hyundai Santa Fe revealed; Buick Envista, BMW M4 CSL driven | Autoblog Podcast #790

Fri, Jul 21 2023

In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Senior Editor John Beltz Snyder. After some banter, including the discussion of an excellent tomato sauce recipe, they get into car reviews. Greg has been driving the Mercedes-AMG GLE 53, while John has been testing the BMW M4 CSL and Buick's new Envista crossover. There's lots of interesting news this week. Chevy revealed the 2024 Traverse with new looks, a new engine and on off-road(ish) trim. Hyundai gave us a glimpse at the wild styling of the next Santa Fe. Dodge might bring back the Stealth nameplate as an SUV, and that has implications for the Durango as well. Ford, after repeatedly raising prices, has turned around and significantly discounted the F-150 Lightning across all trims. The first Tesla Cybertruck has rolled off the line as a pre-production prototype. Finally, we reach in to the mailbag and help a listener decide what to do with cars for himself and his kids in this week's Spend My Money segment.

Here are a few of our automotive guilty pleasures

Tue, Jun 23 2020

It goes without saying, but I'll say it anyway. The world is full of cars, and just about as many of them are bad as are good. It's pretty easy to pick which fall into each category after giving them a thorough walkaround and, more important, driving them. But every once in a while, an automobile straddles the line somehow between good and bad — it may be hideously overpriced and therefore a marketplace failure, it may be stupid quick in a straight line but handles like a drunken noodle, or it may have an interior that looks like it was made of a mess of injection-molded Legos. Heck, maybe all three. Yet there's something special about some bad cars that actually makes them likable. The idea for this list came to me while I was browsing classified ads for cars within a few hundred miles of my house. I ran across a few oddballs and shared them with the rest of the team in our online chat room. It turns out several of us have a few automotive guilty pleasures that we're willing to admit to. We'll call a few of 'em out here. Feel free to share some of your own in the comments below. Dodge Neon SRT4 and Caliber SRT4: The Neon was a passably good and plucky little city car when it debuted for the 1995 model year. The Caliber, which replaced the aging Neon and sought to replace its friendly marketing campaign with something more sinister, was panned from the very outset for its cheap interior furnishings, but at least offered some decent utility with its hatchback shape. What the two little front-wheel-drive Dodge models have in common are their rip-roarin' SRT variants, each powered by turbocharged 2.4-liter four-cylinder engines. Known for their propensity to light up their front tires under hard acceleration, the duo were legitimately quick and fun to drive with a fantastic turbo whoosh that called to mind the early days of turbo technology. Â— Consumer Editor Jeremy KorzeniewskiÂ Chevrolet HHR SS: Chevy's HHR SS came out early in my automotive journalism career, and I have fond memories of the press launch (and having dinner with Bob Lutz) that included plenty of tire-smoking hard launches and demonstrations of the manual transmission's no-lift shift feature. The 260-horsepower turbocharged four-cylinder was and still is a spunky little engine that makes the retro-inspired HHR a fun little hot rod that works quite well as a fun little daily driver.

2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray convertible headed for Geneva debut

Mon, 28 Jan 2013

While most of the world is still coming down from all the hype surrounding the debut of the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this month, we're already looking to the future. And according to Autoweek, the next chapter in the C7 story will unfold at the Geneva Motor Show in March. That's right, General Motors is reportedly using the Swiss stage as its venue to debut the Corvette Stingray convertible.
If this strikes you as odd, you aren't alone. After all, with a car that's such an American icon, we'd fully expect Chevrolet to unveil it here on our shores in either Chicago or New York. But according to Autoweek, GM is looking to boost export sales of its halo car, and since the C7 was engineered to compete with the world's best and brightest, showing it off in Geneva is somewhat of a smart move. What's more, those with sharp memories will recall that GM used the Geneva expo to debut the sixth-generation C6 Corvette convertible back in March 2004, so there's also a precedent.
Details surrounding the Corvette Stingray convertible are still slim, though we fully expect the 6.2-liter V8 and choice of either six-speed automatic or seven-speed manual transmissions to carry over unchanged. Prototypes spotted on the road showed the car fitted with a cloth convertible roof, as well.
