OCR: "FANTASTICO! EVEN IN TURIN NO ONE HAS FUEL INJECTION!" Si, é vero. But the really fantastic item about the new Corvette is not the fuel injection engine, the new four-speed gearbox," the slingshot acceleration or the pasted-to-the-road stability. It is the fact that the Corvette, above all other high-performance sports cars in the world, is a true dual-natured vehicle. It is a genuine luxury car and a genuine sports car, both wrapped in one sleek skin. This is something like a panther with a St. Bernard's disposition. Quite a trick, but what a pet! But, in case you may have polite doubts about the Corvette's unique- ness, we have an easy rebuttal: Drive one! In point of fact, we have no further enticement. If you can spend half an hour in the deep-cushioned comfort of a Corvette's cockpit, if you can sample the crispness of its controls, the veracity of its 16 to 1 steering, the incredible crescendo of its performance-and remain unshaken-you are mighty close to being unique. Frankly, very few drivers escape the feeling that this is one of the authentic great moments of motoring-and those few are not warm to the touch! . . .
