While I am not a fan of either of these Cadillacs, the 1958, especially in the rear, looks far more tasteful than the 1959.

Well, I very seldom vote a TIE, but this time I did.  However, I didn't vote Tie because I like them both the same.  I voted Tie because I think both are two of my least favorite Cadillac's of the 50's, 60's, and 70'.

The '58, it immediately reminded me of Paul Newman's ride in the movie "Hud".

Love the '57, like the '58, dis-like the '59 & '60.

I prefer the 58. The 59 is a bit of a cartoon, no matter how iconic.

ARE YOU KIDDING ME?????  NO CONTEST!!!

 

HOLY SMOKE!!  I'm shocked that the 1958 is winning in the polls!   I love the 1958 Cadillac (1st car I was ever in...brought home from the hospital!) but LOVE the 1959 EVEN MORE (still miss my '59 CDV!)

No contest for me.  I love the styling of the '57, really like the '58 and really dislike the '59 Cadillac.

A tie for me.  I like them both equally.

I have learned to appreciate the styling of the ‘58 in the last few years or so. But seriously, the ‘59 is ICONIC in every way possible! One can’t think of cars of the 50s and not recall the ‘59 Cadillac, it symbolizes everything that cars were in the 50s, and basically the 50s in general. So for me, the 1959 CADILLAC, and if I ever get the opportunity to own one, I’ll flaunt that thing everywhere.
