...well, I used to own a '66 Parklane convertible, white/black top & interior, so I have to go with the '65 Merc.    It looks familiar.  😉

I'm going for the Mercury, to my eyes it has the most class and styling distinction - and I never really cared for the Dodge.

@kevins Well....   you got me.     My initial reaction to your comment was, "Geez, they're not that similar...."      However, after a 2nd, and 3rd look, well.....   they are very similar.    😮 😮 😮

Interesting.  I think this is one of the few times with John's "Which Ones?" that the overall consensus is that neither cars is overwhelming appealing.  And of course I concur.  But kudo's to John, for the excellent comparison!  

George, 18.5% is not exactly overall consensus.

Gents, thanks for your responses...including the 18.5 % that were asleep at the wheel. Smile

Let me put it a different way John.  That 18.5% that voted "no interest" in either car is more than the majority of your "Which Ones?" that get a "no interest" vote.  And it's a dead heat between those that like either with each car getting 37% of the vote.  As I usually do, I shared this "Which One?" with my wife.  Her response was, "Whewww", showing displeasure in both.  I at least gave my vote to the Dodge for its kinder looking grill.

Okay.  I guess the glass is both half-full and half-empty.
