Both are bulky and oversized for their purpose but I do have a slight preference for the Riviera.

Riviera for me. I happen to like these boats.

I'll take the T-Bird for the interior. Both are nice inside. Here are two brochure shots.

Not really excited for either one of them.  But since I won't vote TIE, I'm giving MY VOTE for the THUNDERBIRD.

The Thunderbird by a slight margin. I like the style of both, but the Buick just doesn't have the appeal it had the year before.

Of these two, the Riviera looks better to me.

I'm not much of a fan of most cars after '72 but I do prefer the look of the T-Bird.

I dislike the rear view styling of the Riv so I'm going with the T-bird, which to me looks very similar to the Lincoln Continental.

Neither, don't care for American car design/styling after '72 until the '90's.

Not crazy about either but I'd really rather have the Buick.  If the Riv was my vehicle, I'd get some stick-on portholes and Dynaflow scripts. 😆
