I like the Charger but the ‘66-67 442 is one of my all-time favorites so Olds it is 👍
Oldsmobile for me. It may look more conventional but it has a reputation for good handling.
Retired in Dunedin, Florida.
Both are exceptionally attractive automobiles and I am happy to have scale replicas of each type.
I love the sinister 442 just exactly the way it sits!
Dayum right, just look at what a beautifully styled Olds it is. Just the right amount of chrome, those fantastic wheels and from what I remember..its DDG interior. Glad that HWY61 modeled it 👍

I like the Charger. I like the 442 a bit more.
Easy decision...Olds.
Another tie for me. I love both. I wouldn't kick either out of my garage. 💯🤑
The Olds is probably the better car but, I prefer CC to GMC and I had a '66 Charger and liked it, so today I pick the Charger.
I am probably the only person to pick the Dodge, but the 66-67 Chargers are two of my favorites.
I much prefer the 442. Thanks John.
@carsman1958 Rest assured that there are many others out there who prefer the Charger. This is another Bono excellent match-up as both cars are very different from one another yet both appeal very much. I have always been impressed by the original Charger styling and interior design; although the redesigned '68 is my favorite. Very impressed by the '66 Olds 442 as well but my favorite is the '65 (below)
I give the nod to the daring and unique body design and 4-bucket seat interior of the Charger and recall how blown away I was seeing it and riding in it back in '66 as a 14 year old. I loved it from the moment I first set eyes on it and still do.
Tie. Really like the Dodge but man o live! There is something about the 442 that draws me to it. I had a Cutlass Supreme 1982 great car. First time my dad allowed us to move out of the Chrysler realm. He then bought my brother a 1978 Buick Regal limited edition. He paid for the cars so no sports.
@jack-dodds I agree, the '65 Olds is much better and I would pick it or the '65 Buick GS over the '65 Dodge Coronet.
