Without question, 1957. It's the sweet spot where the earlier Corvette was made more refined and more powerful, but looks better than the quad light, gaudier 1960. 1955 is second for its looks.

Retired in Dunedin, Florida.

Like all three but the most iconic is the 1957. Surprisingly, I prefer the looks of the 1955 over the four head lighted 1960.

I really always liked all the four head lighted versions with the portals underneath so I voted for the 60.  Tough to beat the original look and as stated above the 57 is iconic.  👍👍👍

The '57 single headlight version is my favorite Corvette of that design era.  The '60 is a close second and the '55 a distant third.

60, 55, 57 for me.  The 57 just looks odd in this photo.

My first Corvette was a '59 so that influenced my choice!

Hines Park day before heading of to US Army in 1968.

I vote '57 for its beautiful simplicity.  My Vette preference & favorite is the'62 closely followed by the '61 then the '57.

poll, '57, '60, and a very distant third '55

I like both of these, the solid color does it for me.

@brush I also prefer the clean lines of the '57, but for me, because of the coves, they look best in two-tone.

Strickly from a driving standpoint, I pick the 60 with its suspension and dashboard with the engine gauges placed right in front of you.
