Formal or sporty? Today I feel sporty so Sedanette!
Sedanette. Not to be showy, but since it is not what you normally see, I would have to have the 'different' Buick.
I love the lines of the sedanette.
Retired in Dunedin, Florida.
The Roadmaster Riviera for me.

I'd enjoy either, but the fastback a little more so.😊
I'm going to vote TIE today because I like each Buick version for different reasons. I like the Sedanette because when I was 7 years old, my Dad owned a Gray one. I remember thinking it looked so strange with that "slopped" top into the trunk. And seriously, I always wondered how the driver could see out the rear-view window with it appearing to be more on the top of the car's roof. But when I sat in Dad's car, it seemed so BIG compared to my little boy size at the time. As for the Riviera, I love the "hardtop" roof-line as it looks so much newer and more modern than the Sedanette. It's like "old and new" struggling to attract buyers. And hey John, GOOD ONE today!

Buick Roadmaster for pure style, and you can fit the groceries in the trunk - a full month's worth.
I like everything about both cars. Maybe the sedanette a little more. Although the grill is a little rough. It looks like it chews the road and spits it out.
Either would be welcome in my garage. Slight edge to the Sedanette over the first hardtop Riviera.
Not my favourites but the Riviera appeals most.
