Although this Buick design is a few years old I love the look of it and its drive train.  This era of Charger design was a far cry from the  beautiful '68-'69 era and didn't inspire me.

I really like the third generation Charger, but after driving a 1970 Buick GS 455 for 20 years I have to go with the Buick.  It was an incredibly refined and comfortable car to drive, yet when pushed hard, the torque of the 455 would easily light up the tires for dozens of feet, while cornering surprisingly flat for its size.  Wouldn't you really rather have a Buick? Yes, yes I would.

Love that Buick bodystyle, Never really cared much for the Charger after '70. To me it looks like they flipped the quarter windows upside down, I don't like that look. I think it would have looked better swept back. JMHO though. Buick please.😊

@pete-rovero Pete, a beautiful Buick.  Love the color combo. Do you still have it?

I do like the Buick, but I am a big Mopar fan and I still loved the Chargers when they went to this design.

No John, I don’t have it anymore. It left the garage in 2016. 🫤

I surprised myself by voting for the Buick this time. Don’t mind the charger either.

Tie,  like the Chargers  long sleek look.  The Buick is nice but I like a Cutlass a little better.
