Back in the day, it would have been Toronado, no contest. I've really come to like and admire the lines of the Riviera, though and it gets my vote today. What I like about the Toro is that it is all broad-shouldered brawn. The Riviera is more subtle and flowing.

Once again, I like both vehicles equally well. They were innovative and were designed to stand out as somewhat different than the run-of-the-mill American car of the time.

A tie!

Buick. I think the design is absolutely beautiful and there isn't a better looking wheel than the Buick  sport wheel.

I agree with Bob.  My heart belongs to the Buick.

Bob, I absolutely agree with both your design and wheel comments. The Buick is simply stunning!

Buick for me this year.  Very elegant yet sporty, with beautiful lines.  Toro looks a bit dated by comparison.

Well there always has to be one in the crowd, and this time it's me.  I voted for the TORONADO because it was a unique looking style for an Oldsmobile.  Now I realize by this time the Riviera looked similar to the Toronado, but I much preferred the original look of the Riviera when it debuted in 1963.  So it comes down to I liked both cars but I liked them when they were different from each other.

Riviera. They're both fantastic, but I like the looks of the Riviera better. That and the RWD weight distribution.

I'm liking the Toro more and more, but it's the Riv that gets my vote.
