GTO please. The last year of the model that I truly loved. I also like the Dodge Hemi but it looks heavier than it actually is and prefer other years better. For '67 - the GOAT!

GTO for me. Like both but a fairly easy decision for me.

A very close decision for me but the nod goes to the GTO.  I love the styling of both cars; the GTO wins for the exterior and the Charger for its interior design.  The power train choices for both are excellent.  The Charger styling is certainly more unique and was very spectacular upon its introduction, but polarized people somewhat; personally I loved it.  The tipping point for me is simply the aggressive stance of the GTO...I love that look.  The first 4 years of the GTO were its best IMHO.

Pontiac for me too. It looks better; more resolved. The Charger looks a bit lumpy.

The 67 Charger is one of my favorites.  I have been looking for 1:1 one at a reasonable price for a number of years.  No luck yet.

GTO for me. Easy pick. The Charger is cool in many ways but I've always thought the car was too long for the fastback roof.

I'm lookin a bit lumpy too so I'm choosing the Charger by a hair, albeit a thin one, over the GTO.

GTO in 67 without hesitation, 68 I’d all in on the Charger.

Yep, IMO, the '68 Charger was / is a styling masterpiece that will NEVER grow old / outdated to we carnuts.

And I'll add the 1970 Barracuda & Challenger.IMO, the first year is the best.

Now I know the Barracuda started in 65 but I'm just saying that I believe the 1970 was the best style of year for that model

While I like the Charger, I like the GTO better.

The Charger is nice but not as nice as the GTO.

Pontiac no question, but I like these '66-'67 Chargers more & more as I've gotten older.  I do love the styling contrasts; no one will confuse these two cars. 😎 😎
