Too funny! My wife and I do these "which one's" together each night. She's only an old car person through my love of them. When I showed her the El Dorado, she said, "Okay", then I showed her the Continental, and I never got a quicker response from her on any previous "which one". She saw it and blurted out, "Oh ish!". I'm taking from that response that she didn't like it. For the record, I voted for the CONTINENTAL! If there was an "oh ish", it's the El Dorado! I'm confident that Cadillac stylists lost all use of their imaginative abilities when they drew that design on the drawing table. After the incredibly beautiful '56 Caddy's, they literally dropped the ball with the '57. OH ISH!

I voted for the Eldo Brougham. The Continental looks so "1956" next to it!

Continental, understated elegance...the Cadillac overstated by comparison.

Two very beautiful but different cars. Today the one with the bling gets my vote.

What's so funny about the '57 Eldo is that to my eyes it has always been so not a Cadillac. After the classic and beautiful '56's, for me the '57 is a styling disaster and it went down hill from there. It wasn't until '61 that they stylists started to come down to earth.
