For the times, both beautiful automobiles. I have always liked Buicks and the Chrysler has "fine Corinthian leather !"
I have no use or interest in this period of American cars. Motorcycles [73 & '76 Triumph] pick-up trucks ['74 Ford F250 & '77 Ford F150] for my interest at this time.
Chrysler hit a Home Run with the Cordoba for '75!

I love me some "Corinthian Leather," but my vote goes to that gorgeous Buick and its sharp interior. The Cordoba interior was pretty nice too. But to me, the Buick is sportier...if we can use that word for a 1975 model.
Here's the Buick
This is the Cordoba

Both of them are what we call here in Northeast Ohio, winter beaters.
What Tony said.
Retired in Dunedin, Florida.
I went with the Cordoba, the bumpers blend in with the body better and the design just looks more cohesive. To me anyway.😁
Chrysler Cordoba for me too. Both are sporty and fun but to me the Chrysler looks just a bit more classy. Eye of the beholder, I am sure.
As Tony points out, curiously similar. JKs pictures point out the interiors which gives my vote to the Buick.
I voted no interest. I was never into this size car. In ‘75 I still had an Opel Kadette wagon and got my first VW Scirocco a year later.
Agree with Tony, they are remarkably similar. Hard to choose. The Cordoba does look more solid and classy in a way, but the grill is on the verge of being OTT and the Buick scores better there, but its sculpted lines are maybe less "coherent" than the Chrysler. A tie for me.
Mind you, for a combination of luxury and utility my favourite Cordoba was the pickup.
But that's just me fooling around on a very dull Saturday afternoon. I apologise for not taking this matter seriously enough.
