Because Chevrolet’s sleek good looks, its advanced features, are only part of the story. The big bonus is its remarkable roada bility, the crisp precision handling that has pasted an entirely new standard for cars in every price class. There are reasons for this, of course: Chevrolet’s balanced weight distribution th at takes excessive loads off the front wheels, the wide stance of outrigger rear springs, Ball-Race steering, spher- lcal-jotnt front su-pen>ion. Sure, you can admire the sculptured lines in the showroom. But Chevy’s a car specifically designed for beautiful motion —you have to trarel in this one to know just how terrific it is.
