'57 Buick or Chrysler?

That stunning 300!
Retired in Dunedin, Florida.

I had to go with a tie for different reasons. The Chrysler is sleek and smooth with the sharp tail fins, dual headlights and nicely shaped grill. The Buick has a strong powerful stance and is nicely detailed.

Two positively knock-out beautiful automobiles!! I could change my mind in a second from now, but at a touch smaller in size, I'm going with the gorgeous Buick!

That Chrysler 300 is outstanding.

Yep, gotta go with that stunning 300. There's just something about the '57 Buick, I just really never warmed up to. The Olds for '57 looks way better. JMHO though. 😊

Got to go Buick. I was always fond of the '57.

Gonna be the gorgeous Century for me, no contest! (I do love Nathan’s hot dogs though, they are the only brand I eat.)

One of the nicer Buicks, but I just don't care for Buick styling[except the '60 & '61].
While I am not overly fond of the Chrysler styling it beats the Buick.
'57 Caddy or Pontiac or Olds for GMC, their best styling year ever.
'57 DeSoto for C.C..
Chrysler for today.

Stunningly gorgeous automobiles ! I have replicas of each one and they are real favorites.

I LOVE the Buick shown, especially in those colors; it gets the easy win in spite of possessing comparatively dated styling. Not so much a fan of this era Chryco styling, especially the gaping mouth grille.

Chrysler with not a moment's hesitation. Absolutely stunning. My mom had a 57 Sport Coupe in turquoise and white - a simply gorgeous car, then and today.

Buick for me for both style and build quality.

John, both are stunning and you really messed with my head today but the Buick wins. I’ve loved that Buick model ever since I was old enough to spot it on the road and my love hasn’t waivered. Thanks!

I love the '57 Buick, but not as much as I love the '57 Chrysler!
