Here are my three in order..... within the same general price range:
The '55 Fairlane HT is a very close 4th.

Oh boy, it would be very hard to choose, especially in such an incredible year. But my family did get two new 1955 1:1automobiles and I would also be delighted with both of these : (1) A 1955 Chevrolet and (2) A 1955 Pontiac.

My dad bought a new 55 Pontiac Star Chief Convertible and if I could find one in decent shape, I'd be tempted to buy it today.

Subject to change at a moments notice, I'd start off with these three; 1955 Corvette, Lincoln Capri and the Chrysler 300.

@frank Frank, I would go with your 3 choices, but the MG would be 3rd with the T-Bird 1 and the Corvette 2

@perrone1 Tony, the Mark II was only offered in 56 and 57.
I know Bob - I've known that all my life. But, D'OH, I originally had a Ferrari in this post and realized the post called for an American car. So before posting it I replaced Italian car with a MkII but put it in the wrong thread. I then changed this color MkII out with another in the '56 thread. As I say - D'OH!

My dad bought the 1955 Chevrolet BelAir. I bought an MG. I’m with you Frank.
