Again, two nice designed American cars that are state of the art for the time. I find the Pontiac slightly more to my taste.

Pontiac. It has a style that has a stronger identity.


Retired in Dunedin, Florida.

For 1961, I have to go for the MERCURY.  With the exception of Chevrolet, I was not a fan of any of the General Motors '61 line-up.  The curved and pointy bumpers and fenders were a turnoff for me.

Two of my all time favorite cars, making it a tie with slight edge to the Pontiac if that is possible.  Absolutely love both! Grinning

Mercury for me. I know that the '61 Pontiac is highly admired for its styling, but somehow I just don't see it.
