Tough choice. Since you did not give the option of a tie, I'll go with the Series 4531 as I prefer the single tone body. I like both.

I agree with David above; it's a tough choice.  But I'll go with the Caribbean. Really like the two-tone (but preferred the open wheel wells on the '53).

The Caribbean for me, nice clean sportier look.

I prefer the Series 5431.  I like the solid color and the smoother chrome lines.  Both are nice though.

Damn.  I was going for the tie.  I chose the simpler model.  Cleaner.

Had to vote for the series 5431, love the light green with the darker top. Just gorgeous!

I never found this generation of Packards to be attractive. I'll vote 'pass'.
