Oddly enough, the line that impresses me most about Feanor occurs when Gandalf is talking to Pippin about the palantir.
Quote:

"Even now my heart desires to test my will upon it...and turn it where I would-- to look across the wide seas of water and of time to Tirion the Fair, and perceive the unimaginable hand and mind of Feanor at their work, while both the White Tree and the Golden were in flower!" He sighed and fell silent.

So, apparently, Gandalf would vote for Feanor?
But-- personally, although Feanor amazes me, I think Fingolfin rules, not the least because he remained level-headed most of the time, and was consistently good.
