I really like both. I picked the Corvette over the Thunderbird because in 1957, Chevrolet had a vehicle which was just beginning a long evolution while Ford, was in the final year of a three year experiment, abandoning the concept while keeping the Thunderbird name for a completely different type of vehicle.

I like both but I'll take the Corvette for it's sportier nature.

Had to vote "no interest in either".  Not sure why, but neither two-seater ever ruffled my feathers.  Just not a fan of small cars.

Thunderbird for me. 

Me too. Love its looks, and it's a bit more luxurious.

Retired in Dunedin, Florida.

I love them both but give the nod to the Vette; same goes for 1956.  I find the single headlight version of this design really appealing.  In '55 it would be T-Bird by a mile for me.

T-bird definitely.

T-bird & Corvette being 2 seaters just don't fit me and I don't appreciate dragging my butt on the road, which is what driving 2 seater sports cars feels like to me.  I do like a fews styling, in my order of preference,  1.  '57 T-bird,  2. '62 Vette,  3. '55 T-bird,  4. '61 Vette, 5.  '56 T-bird [butt wart yuck], the rest of the 2 seaters I just don't care for, exception being the  '70 AMX and the '90 - '93 Caddy Allante [not considered a very good car by most but I like the styling or lack there of].  For my taste, Full-size American 1950 to 1964, Mid-size [intermediate] American 1965 to 1970,  not a fan of luxury, sports, compact, or pony cars [yes of course I do like a few of each group].

Two gorgeous 2-seaters. For me it's the Corvette for its sporty appeal.
