<VV> Spyder/Corsa turbo -- fast?

Eric,
 
Corvairs have never been fast.  But they have always been quick which  is 
defined as being able to everything well in less time than their market  
competition.  I wouldn't ever try to outrun faster cars in a good  Corvair--I 
would just drive their drivers nuts because they wouldn't be  able to easily 
shake me off--I'd be right there with them.  The skid pad  numbers and 60 to 
0 stopping numbers of a well maintained Corvair are still  world 
class--without ABS, Stability control and other computer programs.
 
I love my Malibu 3.6L V6 (0-60 in 6.2 sec. in a family sedan), and it  can 
be fun--but not as much fun and certainly not as forgiving as one of my LM  
Corvairs when they are in their prime (which they unfortunately aren't  now).
