Sixty was a good look for Chevy. The Impala, in red and as a convertible, is top shelf Baby!

Chevy for sure! Top shelf indeed. 😎👍

'60 Chevy is a well-styled car indeed. But the "space-age" styling of the Dodge wins me over!
The "Dart" line was especially good-looking from the rear view:

I voted Dodge for the same reason.
To me the 1960 Chevy falls between two stools between the 59 and 61.

I give the nod easily to the '60 Impala styling; which makes the Dodge look bloated and chunky in comparison. I have always liked the '60 Impala over the '59; although both are very attractive IMHO. The '60-'61 Dodge has never excited me.

I would love either in my garage but over time I think the Chevrolet design would be easier to live with.

Dodge for me. Did not like the flat fins on the Chevy.

Chevy for me. Styling is bit less dramatic than the '59 but more cohesive front-to-rear. The Dodge isn't an unattractive shape but it is let down by brightwork (especially that grille) which looks really, REALLY cheap and tinny and badly tacked-on.

Neither excite me, prefer the Chevy.

I prefer the somewhat more cohesive styling of the Chevrolet in 1960, such a relief to me after 1959.

The Dart is nice, but not as nice as the Impala.
Gents, thanks for the pics and responses.
