I voted for the Dodge. I like the 56 Plymouth much more.  Those colors look better on the 1958 Dodge from Neo.

@georgeschire The 56 Pontiac Dashboard was the same as the 55.

You are correct Mr. Jackman, my mistake.  Again, searching for the White-Out.  Smile

Dodge, by a huge margin, for me.

Two exceptionally beautiful automobiles and each was a fine follow-up to the 1955 editions. I really like them both. Interestingly in real world, our family's first Dodge was a big 1965 Custom 880 station wagon that I later drove as a used hand-me down vehicle.

We also had a 1955 Pontiac sedan for many years in our family and it was a reliable and good-looking automobile.

Even though I am a lifelong fan of Pontiac, the rather chunky '56 bumper/grille makes it my least favorite year Poncho of its decade......but I still like it.  In this comparison I like the Dodge a bit more though...but its very close.  The '55 and '56 are my fave Dodges (in that order) of that decade.

Loving the '56 Dodge, the '56 Pontiac was a disappointment after the stylish '55.

Gents, thanks for responding.
