What absolutely beautiful 1950's era General Motors automobiles ! I have both of these knockouts in 1/18 scale ...... in fact, 8 total editions of these gorgeous cars.

I don't like either one. Would rather have a Ford or Chevy.

For me, that Buick is wicked cool and in those paint colors, stunningly beautiful! Open-air windows makes for driving in a wonderful breeze. The Olds is terrific too, but head-to-head, it's Buick for me.

A tough comparison between two of my favorites as I love both. I'm going with the Olds for the Fiesta wheel covers.

Very close to a tie but the Oldsmobile squeaked out a win.


Retired in Dunedin, Florida.

'57 Outstanding year for GMC styling, like them all in this order:

1. Cadillac

2. Pontiac

3. Oldsmobile

4. Chevrolet

5. Buick

So today I vote Oldsmobile.

Bob.  I believe Motormax makes the Buick in 1/18.

For decades I had placed Buick slightly ahead of Olds for 1957 but in the last couple of years the Olds has come up a notch to make it a tie.  Both are beautiful cars and the colors shown suit them very nicely.

1957. It has got to be Chevrolet or Pontiac if buying GM.
