Man! Your color choices make this hard! I'm going big or going home...the Caddy gets my vote, followed by the Chevy, Pontiac, Olds, and Buick in that order.

Pontiac in a virtual tie with the Oldsmobile. Cadillac next. Buick, then Chevy.


Retired in Dunedin, Florida.

The only GMC car styling for '59 I like is the Pontiac, the rest of the line up I don't care for at all.

For styling:

1. Pontiac

 

2. Buick

3. Olds

4. Caddy

5. Chevy

A monstrous year.  They went big and I think they realized they could go no bigger.  That all said I like the Pontiac best of all.

2 Buick

3 Olds

4 Cadillac

5 Chevy

As 1963 became gigantic for the Chevrolet Corvette Split window coupe, four years later, so did 1959 become a monumental year - for fins and the '59 Cadillac. 

For my taste in looks, Buick second, Chevy third, Olds fourth and Pontiac fifth.

@brush Brush +1. GM did not impress me in 1959. Pontiac was the most appealing.

I will go with the Pontiac for the nose, the Buick for the odd shape, Cadillac for the fins, Oldsmobile only because it looks like the Pontiac, and then the Chevrolet.

For 1959, Buick and Chevrolet tie.  The rest no interest.

Buick, Olds, Chevy, Pontiac, Cadillac. Any one of these would stand out in a show today. The Buick and Olds made a miraculous recovery from the prior year.

Bob, your Buick & Olds “recovery comment” is the best, most truthful comment I’ve heard all year!
