The Olds wins this for me.  The Merc is nice but the Olds is handsome. 👀👍

Iconic Olds Starfire. Late member, Jerry Mercier, had one just like this; same color, and championed that car always. My easy pick!

Olds by a country mile; it's just a stunning car.

I restored a 61 Starfire and owned two 62 Starfire hardtops. Olds for me for sure. The 394 engines were bullet proof but the Slim Jim transmissions shift point were aggravating in stop and go traffic.

'62 is one of my favorite years for Mercury but the Starfire still gets my vote today.

I only see ONE car in today's "Which One?".  It's the STARFIRE!  I owned a '62 Starfire 2-door hardtop in beautiful Maroon.  FOREVER one of my personal favorite cars!

Nice Starfire but I'm voting for that unrated Mercury Monterey.
