That 442 is a great design. For me, the Mercury has a leaner, sleaker feel to it. My vote goes to the Merc.

I absolutely LOVE that Olds 442. Just not in that color. I owned a '67 Merc Cyclone GT and the '65 takes me back to that beast of a car. (Hate the color here too) but I vote Mercury.

I find this one to once again be very close; good choices John.  I prefer the styling of the 442; especially the tail end.

 Like the Olds, but I always loved the '65 Comet, the only Comet I liked,

'66 they went to mid-size.  Comet was a compact and the Olds was a mid-size in '65.

I just have to go with that sleek more compact Mercury Cyclone.

I've always been a compact car kind of person so I would go for the Comet.
