1969: Only for Girls
Here you see the stunning Playboy Pink. The actual name of this model is the 1969 Shelby GT500 Fastback Mustang Convertible 351C, but it got famous as Playboy pink because this car wasn’t created for men at all. This is the only limited-edition car in the history of automobiles that was specially designed for Playboy cover girls.
You see the gorgeous Playboy Playmate Connie Kreski flaunting this beauty in the photo. Since 1954, Playboy Magazine has followed a tradition of introducing a Playmate of the Year Car every year. This one was created in pink shade. The magazine announced the Playmate of the Year and gifted the model the car. Interestingly, this car was a Mustang only in 1964 and 1969. In 1969, Kreski was declared the Playmate of the Year and was gifted this Mustang.
