69 over the 70. Really don’t like the rear wheel skirts on the one pictured.

@frank, I agree. But I will give them credit for taking a long in the tooth design and making it look unique.

Too biomorphic; both. Now a 225 Electra ? I would have either years.

1966 or 1967 wins for me, so I voted 1969 because it's close if adulterated.

My vote goes to the '69 also and for the above stated reasons.

1969. Buick took a swan and turned it into an ugly duckling in 1970.

I'd walk right past both of them at a car show. After the unique and beautiful '63, '64, and '65 model years, Buick ruined the Riviera (in my opinion).

They are pretty much the same with subtle changes. I just went with a tie.

I didn't like those subtle changes. I don't like those skirts and I don't like the front end of the '70. I prefer the front end of the '69 with that massive bumper and the hideaway headlights. Just my opinion.
