Playboy's 2006 Cars of the Year

The January issue of Playboy features the monthly men’s magazine’s 2006 Cars of the Year, the grand prize winner of which is the Porsche Cayman S.

The entire list of 2006 Cars of the Year was compiled by Playboy’s driving team headed up by Ken Gross, former Director of the Petersen Automotive Museum in L.A. and automotive journalist extraordinaire. Keep livin’ the life, Ken! Here’s the full list of category winners:
