Poll: Which Buick? (6/23/2025)

I like the 60 look but the 61 is more to my taste.  I vote 61.  ✌️

I like both cars very much. But I sometimes saw a large 64 Falcon in the 61 Buick *. The 60 reminds me of a 60's care free vagabond with a suitable pompadour over those headlights and the proper tail fins to match a standard D.A.

The two full-size Buicks I like.  Both different, like the size of the '61 but the protruding front fenders that resemble the '61 - '63 Thunderbird that I dislike, so today the '60 is my choice.

I'm not a fan of the 1961 styling, but I much prefer its size and relative modernity. It wins for me.

John? John; is that you? LOL! I'm due in tomorrow. I guess it's just me, but I see the Falcon's bullet-shaped front fenders and the Buick's, to look alike. Granted, the 61 Buick's came before the 64 Falcon's but I see them very much alike.

 John? John, are you still here? Oh, there you are. Such a fine figure of a man. Good morning!

Tony, when was the last time you had your eyes checked? I think your long overdue!

61 for me for the finer lines and sleeker look.

@perrone1 Wow Tony. I would never have seen the comparison to the Falcon had you not pointed it out....a very keen eye Sir. Now to the task at hand...60 for me. I find it hard to believe that such a drastic change took place from one year to the next. I really like the 61 but the "in your face" of the 60 gets my vote. John B. you did it again.

Not my favourites but I do see several features on the 1961 that I prefer, the main one being the windscreen which had far less edge distortion compared to the  1960. Falcon??

Some mornings these "Which Ones?" are just so easy to choose one over the other.  For me, it's a no-contest, as the '60 Buick is over the top gorgeous.  To my eyes General Motors in 1961, with the exception of Chevy, fell asleep on their styling that year.  The "pointy" front and back fenders of the '61's do absolutely nothing for me.  

I like the '60 Buick much better than the '59. But the '61 looks fresh and lean to me. It gets my vote. And, for the record, Tony, the falcon looks like the Buick, not the other way around. Your incessant squinting seems to have blurred the space-time continuum. 

The '60 is the winner for me 👍 I absolutely love it !

Love both but the '60 is somewhat bloated with all its lumps and bumps while the '61 is lean and mean. Also, I took my road test in 1961 in my brothers' brand new Buick.

Gents, thanks for your responses!
