A Man & His Car is a celebration of men’s deep connection with cars, told through original interviews and striking photography. Jay Leno recounts buying his first car, a 1955 Buick Roadmaster, for $350 and living in it before his break in Los Angeles. Kevin Costner shares how he fell for the Shelby Mustang he drove in Bull Durham and added it to his collection. Tesla’s chief designer Franz von Holzhausen reminisces about his car obsession starting at age two, while Snoop Dogg’s iconic 1965 Cadillac "Snoop DeVille" convertible speaks for itself.
The book also offers an insider look at exclusive collections, from the Petersen Automotive Museum to Steve McQueen’s 1956 Jaguar XKSS and Elvis Presley’s bullet-riddled 1971 DeTomaso Pantera. With each story paired with detailed photographs, including close-ups of hood ornaments and full-body shots, A Man & His Car transforms vehicles into symbols of pop culture, innovation, memories, and personal identity. It’s a tribute to the cars that go beyond transportation to represent life’s milestones and passions.
