The 1970 Thunderbird had very attractive lines, superior, in my opinion to those of the Riviera.

I don't care for either one at all but if I had to choose Buick would win.  That T-Bird beak is hard to look at IMHO.

Not a very good year for either.  I went tie.

The sleek lines of the Buick is what makes it stand out.  Looks like it is speeding down the road just sitting there.

T-Bird for me but I like both.

This one is a challenge. I like the T-Bird but would admit the design is a bit overwrought. The Riviera was the last of its generation but still maintained much of the elegance of the original design...but not all of it. I went with the Riv.

Riviera for me too, but as others have stated, the ship sailed on their glory days looks wise.

T-Bird is my choice. I don't like that Riviera one bit.

I prefer the Riviera over the T-bird.

For 1975, this one is really close.  I like both.  But that Riviera is an absolute knockout!  That simple chrome strip swipe along the side seals it for me.  WOW!
