This is a tough one that for me could vary day to day. Today it's the '58 by a hair.

I'll take the 1958, mainly because of the rear end treatment.

To be honest neither one really excites me, but if push came to shove, I'd take the '60. After 1956, Dodge styling didn't get my attention until the beautiful 1961's.

I'm trying to envision each of these without their fins. Won't work, at least not for me. The '58 seems to have an honest "Fins added" look, but the '60 just has fins for no stylistic reason that I can figure. Vote me "None of the above."

Just don’t care for the fins on the 58, but the placement the 60s fins to my eye is unusual and preferred.

Back in the day, the Polara wasn't even a blip on my radar, today I love it.
