Elvis loved his vehicles. His love for cars began as a young man and progressed just like his music career. Not only did he purchase cars for himself, he also gave them to friends and family. Elvis kept his fleet of cars current. He would refurbish his driveway with new and updated models constantly. It has been said that a few Hollywood entertainers and music stars purchased some of his trade-ins. Stories have been told about Elvis’s love for Cadillacs, but he also appreciated other makes and models such as Lincoln Continentals.

Below are a few of the vintage vehicles displayed in the museum on Elvis’s Graceland compound. Follow along with us and see one of the most interesting collection of cars from an entertaining legend.
