The side trim on the '63 makes it the winner for me. I also prefer the taillights on the '63.

Super easy win for 1963. Love them both, but to me the '63 looks so much cleaner. GP from that year is at the top of my wish list.


Retired in Dunedin, Florida.

I'll go with the 1964, mainly because I like the uncluttered sides. Both are great cars though.

Since I will never vote a tie, I vote for the '64.  Like both a lot, but prefer the non-chrome sides of the '64.

The '64 for me also. I especially like the styling of the front bumper.

I LOVE both cars but prefer the nose, tail lights and trim of the 63; which is my 2nd favorite Pontiac of that decade, after the '61.  The 63 Grand Prix is my fave GP by far.

I like the 64 styling of the entire car.

Love the '61 & '64, like the '62 & '63.  Bonneville or Grand Prix.

@brush  I agree with you Bruce, Pontiacs 61 thru 64 are beautiful.  Although I know you don't like the 65 I would definitely include it in this group as well.  Sadly, IMHO, this marque's styling began to decline beginning in 66.

@john-barry, I never noticed it before, but you're right, the '64 seems to anticipate the beautiful '65. Like Jack, I was always amazed at how quickly the Pontiacs seemed to slide downhill to my liking after '65, though.
