They all are gorgeous in red, but I would not want to own any of them. They are just too large and ungainly.

Being honest, none of the three really excite me.  I thought that Cadillac for '58 was the one General Motors brand that year that was the least attractive of their line-up.  The Imperial, like all of the Chrysler Corp. cars were not really impressive to my eyes, with the exception of the Chrysler itself.  So that brings me to FoMoCo's Lincoln for '58, which is not the appealing either to me, but of the three cars, I like it the best. 

I VOTE LINCOLN!

I think that 58 Cadillac is extremely sharp!

Caddy by a mile for me.  I have always liked the '57-'58 Caddy styling very much and prefer the '57.  The Imperial is a fairly nice looking car, but I have never liked this era of Lincoln; especially the '58.
