NO! Not which; I want BOTH!!
You're killing me John. (OK, like most of us, I love it, but don't get the big head! HA!)
The '59 is original 'go big or go home' territory. But the '60 is a touch more refined with flowing jet fighter-like lines. I want it!!

A question I have asked myself many times and still don't know the answer completely. If I want a car for other people's acknowledgement it's the 59. If it's for my garage, I'm thinking 60. I'm going with the 60 for it's more refined taste.

I choose the '60 also.

The '60 is sleeker looking; especially with the tail lights incorporated into the fins line and less chrome trim. I like it much more than the '59.

Another easy one today. The '60 without hesitation! I thought GM's '59 brand line-up was outstanding with the exception of the Cadillac. While on the other hand, I thought their '60 line-up was really bland with the exception of the Buick and the Cadillac.

@georgeschire I agree that the GM lineup for 1960 was a little bland compared to the exciting '59s (excluding Cadillac, as you say) but IMHO GM hit it out of the park from '61 to '65. I love everything they produced in this time frame....including pickups.

I went with the '60. To me, it seems emblematic of the fifties without that vague feeling of overkill the '59 exhibited.

I'm surprised to be the first vote for the '59. Once you decide to go overboard, might as well go WAY overboard instead of just halfway!

This is no choice... 1959 always & forever. Those "watered-down" 1960's will never appeal to me as much as "exaggerated" '59's do! Why drive a goldfish when you could drive a shark! 😏 😏

I love both, but the slightest edge to the '60.😊

60 for me. The 59 was just too far out for me.

They are both magnificent beasts! But for me nothing says Cadillac elegance more than the ‘59 Eldorado. I want both, but if forced to pick one, it’s the ‘59 or nothing!
