Gearhead Gift Guide: Post-holiday gift ideas

So today is Christmas! I would like to extend due respect to all readers of automoblog.net and the more true meaning of reunion and community on December 25th

th

day, this holiday can be regarded as the most valuable event commercially. Many of us have been honored with a much-wanted gift item under the Christmas tree. However, some of us tear open our gifts realizing we’re beholding products destined to be returned to stores. While a fair share of item returns will result in store credit, some automotive enthusiasts may become the lucky ones to obtain cashback.

Also relevant for those who have acquired their present in the form of money, motorheads can set their sights to a wide-ranging assortment of official automotive-branded merchandise bringing post-holiday cheer.

BMW Snow Racer

Mopar 2GB USB Storage Drive

Mercedes-Benz 2010 Classic Ornament Set

Built Ford Tough Portable Grill

Infiniti Essence Sculpture

BMW Snow Racer

Price:

£

69.95 ($107.97 US)

A tragedy as a youngster is to have an object of curiosity within our daily viewing. Seeing a BMW M3 or BMW 7-Series zooming down the road would fill a young mind (as well as the older children at heart) with a desire to one day control a product fronted by the creators of “the ultimate driving machine”. Made from weather resistant plastics, the 6 kilogram (13.22 pound) BMW Snow Racer provides excitement for children 4-10 years old as they storm down white, powdery hills in this stylish sled. Sorry to more mature readers, there is not an adult version of the BMW Snow Racer.

Mopar 2GB USB Storage Drive

Price: $39.75

An excellent item for the tech savvy Chrysler fan, the 2 gigabyte-sized Mopar USB flash drive properly advertises fanaticism for the popular accessory brand. Shaped in the form of a Mopar ‘M’ logo, this custom-designed USB drive disassembles from its casing to expose the connection piece. A portable storage device, photos, music and other file formats can be saved on the cleverly-designed USB flash drive.

Mercedes-Benz 2010 Classic Ornament Set

Price: $35.00

Never to early for some to think about the next Christmas season, a set of four ornaments features the image of 1970s and 1980s Mercedes-Benz vehicles. Depicted on painted glass ornaments, the classic Mercedes-Benz W123 sedan as well as the 1985 500 SEL coupe. This four ornament holiday grouping arrives inside a custom-fitted red box for extra-safe keeping.

Built Ford Tough Portable Grill

Price: $149.00

The fully-equipped Built Ford Tough portable grill set includes the ideal outfitting for an impromptu barbecue. Composing of a mini propane-fueled grille (propane tanks sold separately) and a waterproof, insulated cooler and a 3-piece grilling tool complement. The Built Ford Tough portable tool makes anyone the most popular figure at tailgate parties.

Infiniti Essence Sculpture

Price: $300.00

Unlike a standard die-cast and scaled-model, Infiniti’s automotive Essence Sculpture serves more as an artform rather than an accurate recreation of their design direction. Building only 300 complete examples, the body shell is made of solid resin. Completing the high-fashion presentation, a specially-suited bespoke carrying case for the limited edition sculpture is produced by renowned luggage and handbag Louis Vuitton. This collaboration follows-up on the full-sized concept coupe, the Infiniti Essence which featured custom-fitted Louis Vuitton luggage.
