1965 was the high-water mark for General Motors, especially for PMD.  '65, '64, and '63.

@pete-rovero I’ve stated before that I owned two ‘63 Pontiac 2 dr ht’s, a Bonneville and a Catalina Ventura, along with a totally roached out 421 GP parts car. I dearly loved them but if I were looking to own another full size it would be a ‘65 2+2. I’ve always preferred the shorter Catalina’s, and I’ve grown to appreciate the ‘Coke bottle’ ‘65, ‘66 look.

Loved most GMC full-size '61 - '64, don't care for their styling '65 up.  I love the '64, like the '63, don't care for the '65.  I much prefer cars that look like cars, not cars that are trying to look like aircraft or space ships.

You guys know my love of Pontiacs. I voted a tie obviously, lol. But put 'em in reverse order for me. 65/64/63.🤑

Pontiac porridge was a touch too cool in '63. A tad too hot in '65. Just RIGHT in '64!!

I contacted Goldilocks about this. (She's still looking stunning by the way) and she said, "The sixty-three had a distracting wide chunk of chrome running on the sides from the front, but only to the middle of the door. Unfinished." Then she said, of the sixty-five, "It was overdone. Streamlined and curvy but too long and too much chrome on the bottom where it is thick in front and skinny behind. Unfinished." "The sixty-four is handsome. A man's man. Perfect."

@perrone1 Tony, Goldilocks is a trespasser. She's lucky the papa bear didn't shoot her.

What? Say it ain't so. The lying  little blonde told me she had a hall pass. It was signed by John Kuvakas hisself. i THOUGHT something was funny when I saw it spelled, Jon Koovakiss. I'll revoke her Lounge priviledges right now!

I like all but in order, as Bob and Kevin and others, 1965, 1964 and then 1963. I like the side trim on the 63 best.

I agree with you Tony that Goldie would walk past that Bonnie drop-top, but if she saw my mighty 2+2, she would marvel how the beast looked with the shorter ass end, de-chromed body, and that absolutely gorgeous top, she would stop in her tracks and beg you to drive her home!

A real bears, bear!!
