He meant the Corvair Monza:

 Power peaked with the 1965–66 turbocharged 180 hp (134 kW; 182 PS) Corsa 
engine option. 

The Corvair's legacy was affected by controversy surrounding its handling, 
which led to its inclusion in Ralph Nader's Unsafe at Any Speed. Nonetheless a 
subsequent National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) study 
concluded that the car's handling was as safe as that of its contemporaries.

It does not surprise me that mention of the Corvair can spark so much subject 
on the PDML.
