Kaiser, because it so odd. I do love the Buick too.

'53 Buick! That's the car I rode home from the hospital in when I was born:)
My Dad had a '53 Special. I have the BoS 1:18.

The Kaiser, especially this Dragon. The Kaiser was beautiful, a great big interior, rode beautifully, and was so under-powered that it could hardly climb even the southern Appalachians without downshifting. I saw one at a car show last summer and it's still an eye-catcher.
Buick wins for its better looks.

Enter the Dragon.
Kaiser
Even though I have some Buick blood in my veins, my heart says the Kaiser is better looking here. And I think also of the Skylark and the Darrin and still think Kaiser has the looks. Plus I think too many green cars make me queasy.

Kaiser on looks alone.
Retired in Dunedin, Florida.
Buick
That was my first thought. It's so far out of the norm. +1 for the Kaiser.
Kaiser for me.
