In memory of [culture icon and Playboy mogul](<https://www.twz.com/14697/remembering-hugh-hefners-iconic-jet-black-dc-9-big-bunny>) Hugh Hefner's passing, *The Drive* is looking back on some of the legend's most prized possessions--his cars. Though he obviously had larger interests in his life than autos, his stellar collection was one of taste and grandeur that a true gearhead would be happy to call their own. A mix of European style and American innovation filled Hef's garage at the Mansion, and today we remember the five best examples throughout the years.
