Need help w/ decision

[italian1nj]

I have always thought of myself as a guy car with no particular die hard loyalty to one make or another although I do obviously lean toward Mopar. That said I am looking at 2 vehicles right now and would like some input from you guys. And yes I know I tod GT61 to buy both trucks but I am not in a position to do that right now. The vehicles I am looking at are

1. '64 Dodge Polara w/ 426 Wedge
2. '64 Chevy Impala w/ 409

If price, condition and all other factors were equal which would you choose. Thanks, V

Buy the Impala. All else being the same, the resale value will be more no matter what the condition unless the Mopar has some sort of historical signifigance or heritage. Also, finding a buyer for an Imp when and if you ever sell it is way easier than finding a buyer for a Polara. That's my .02.

409.......................resale.....

 

[Silverback]

Let's make it unanomous. The 409.

 

[Broke]

Get the 409 Impala, no question.

409's are legendary. :rock: :rock: :rock:

426 wedge very cool but not in the same league.:dontknow: :dontknow: :dontknow:

It's a no brainer Vince.:burnout: :burnout: :burnout:

 

[HOT RAM]

Chevies SUCK! MOPAR OR NO CAR! Sorry guys but a 409 is an anchor!

Resale value on classic chevys is always higher... Just watch ANY Barrett Jackson classic car auction.... Old Chevys have better value....

The choice of a Mopar is an emotional one.... If "Mopar or no car" is your phrase...well, it may be financially wrong, but ya gotta follow your heart....

Good luck

OH, PLLLLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAASE. Earth to mopower, come in mopower......we cannot discern your trajectory.......you seem to be hurling uncontrollably into oblivion.....hello, do you read me?....This is earth calling mopower......over.....

Seriously dude. This guy is asking a serious question and you answer with "Chevies suck!"?? Ok then, I suppose you would also prefer a 1970 Satellite over a 69 Yenko Camaro right, Mr. Mopar? Cause Chevies suck right? Sheesh, you would answer that a 1986 Dodge Omni is better than a 64 Impala also, right? I would hope the F*** NOT!!! Anyway, I think the dude is looking for opinions on what would be the better purchase, from people who would otherwise be open to purchasing either, as he is, not "what do you like." Heck, we all have opinion on what we like. We should start a thread about that. In fact, I think i will. And you are welcome to come and bust my balls just like I am doing to you here. No offense meant brother, must be the heat...and the fact that i can't stand elitist pr*cks. LOL...anyway, peace.

Steve, if it were about 2-3 months from now and they were both still available I would agree. But right now it's an either or. I have been leaning towards the 409 but not for resale because as my wife will tell you once I buy them I tend to keep them. I think it is more what I would be getting for the money. The price is close enough. The Dodge, push button auto, Chevy 4 speed. I hate these decisions.:burnout: :hmmmm2:
