I went with the 60. The 61 just reminds me of a Oldsmobile.

As much as I like 1961's tidier size, 1960 has the lines that give it the win.
Retired in Dunedin, Florida.

The ‘60 is my pick with no hesitation !!! It has a “presence” that the ‘61 lacks. Just look at all the beautiful curves and folds in its body styling compared to the slab-sided ‘61. 👍
Thanks John !

Go BIG or go home! The Sixty has that appearance of Batman; the cape shadowing his eyes (headlights) the cape that flows backward and fin-covers the taillights! What a beauty; HUA!!

The only Buick I actually like the 1960, please.

I find the 1960 to be significantly more attractive.

That's the color combo of the '60 mom and pops had when I was a kid. Oh yeah, the '60 all day long.💯I'd like mine as a subtle two tone LaSabre:

The 60 does it for me. It is a work of art. I never liked the front or back of the 61 and that goes for the 61 Oldsmobile too.

60 for sure. But the 59 is my all time favorite.
