Another no-brainer!  The PONTIAC without hesitation for me.  I like the other two, but no comparison to the Pontiac!

I had to vote a tie.  I like all three. Of course the GTO leads the pack. I have always liked the square midsize Dodges and I find the Comet Interesting until they ruined it in the 70s..

The Goat first, then blowing in the wind like a Cyclone; 2nd. Followed closely by crowning #3, the Coronet.

All three are great, but none greater than "the great one" for '65.

Mopar for me. This is the start of many great Mopars of the 60's.

My three favorite makes of cars. If the year was '66 I would have to say tie, I absolutely love the '66's.

Today we have '65's, the Comet is a compact car and didn't moved up to mid-size until '66, I like the styling/looks of it but it is too small for my body. The Dodge styling just doesn't look that good until '66, which I love. The GTO looks great in '65 but is outstanding in '66.  

1. GTO

2. Coronet

3. Cyclone would be #2 if I rated for looks alone.

Bruce, since Mercury did not offer a true midsized car in 1965, the '65 Comet is as good as it gets.

As much as I like the Dodge I have to give this one to the Pontiac.

A closer and more varied survey than I thought. I'm with Tony.

The GTO is miles ahead for me; my fave years for it are '64, '65 and '66.  Comet is a nice looking car but I like the '64 much more; it sits at #2.  The Dodge does nothing much for me I'm afraid.
