I voted for the '65 Riviera because it still had looks close to its '63 version.  I was not a fan of the new styling in '66.

I agree with George. The 1965 Riviera is more stylish to me.

Beautiful cars, Buicks, no thank you.  Just don't care for the styling.  No interest in either.

the 65 Riviera is one of my favourite cars. Automodellos model is sitting right on my desk now. Thanks for these daily Whichs? John, always look forward to them.

The 65 has always been my favorite although over the years the 66 has grown on me. I too have the Automodello model. 65 it is.

Both are gorgeous cars but the 63-65 body style is stunning.

I love the 1966 Riviera, but the 1965 can not be denied. Yet another icon, it wins.

For me, it has to be the '66. While the '63 to '65 are nicely styled, the '66 is it. My FAVORITE RIVIERA of all time. It probably contributed to this love of the '66 because I grew up around a gorgeous light blue '66 that my Aunt Do had.

Love them both, but I can't resist the timeless styling of the Gen 1 Riviera.

I went with the '66. The first year of a new generation is the "purest" and subsequent changes are usually for the worse. I much prefer the '63/'64 to the '65. But any Riviera is a desirable car!
