The Kaiser Darrin was not "marred by reliability issues". Kaiser's mechanicals were always rock solid. The reason the Corvair could be unsafe is because owner's often didn't read the owner's manual and overinflated the front tires. The Studebaker Hawk was quite popular, and almost all American cars weighed over 3000 pounds. Note that a 1957 Chevy is about 3500 pounds. The Nash Metropolitan had no problem keeping up with 1950s highway speeds, in fact it made VW Beetles look like they were standing still.
It's NOT a Ford Edsel, it's an Edsel. It was a separate division of FoMoCo. You don't say Ford Mercury, or Ford Lincoln, do you? It's not Corsley, it's Crosley These cars were manufactured from 1939 through 1952. Research, please?
I didn’t hate these cars but I didn’t love them. I was just neutral. The only car I even remembered was the Corvair, then only because my dad was a mechanic at a Chevrolet dealership.
