...greater inside roominess with reasonable outside dimensions-very much, in fact, like the cars of a decade ago. Having found that buyers insist on all kinds of fancy extras (Chevy's 1961 Corvair got off to a slow start until the Monza model came out last year with bucket seats, extra chrome, luxurious interior fittings and prestige insignia), the pizazz experts are following the trend in most models and providing the whole gamut of sporty touches except for helmets and goggles. And, depending on the model and the price, all the companies are engineering changes that will...
...ornamentation; contrary to widespread gossip, there will be no Corvair convertible for the fall. Chevy's intermediate (110-in. wheelbase and 183-in. overall length), will have single headlights, sculptured side, horizontal bars on the grille and a squared-off back fender. A pizazz version will get the bucket-seat treatment and the rest of the optional works. The Corvette, the European-style sports car, again will get only the most minor grille changes.

...fastest seller. Its registered sales in the first four months were off by more than 100,000 from 1960, but its share of the market held fairly steady at 21%. Chevy lost part of its sales to its own brother, Corvair, which scored with the Monza-a hot-selling, bucket-seat job that increased Corvair's market slice from 3.3% to 5.6%, second highest among individual compact models...
