Auto Trends

What gift or present do you give to that special car enthusiast for the 2007 holiday season? Here are a few ideas that will be a real hit this season:

1. Satellite Navigation System - such as the Navman 530 - This navigation system is lighter and more convenient after shedding some weight and has added a few cool features for the auto enthusiast. One touch of the button allows you to find the nearest gas station, delivers free real-time traffic reports, and even has a European map to go along with your local pre-loaded map.

2. Hands Free Mobile Phone Kit- If you loved one doesn’t already have one of these unique gifts, then this Christmas would make the perfect time to treat them.

3. Heated Massage Seat- If you don’t already own one of the top of the line luxury model vehicles that come with one of these units already installed, they have several models available, such as one of these. Some even have cooling capabilities to use in the summertime.

4. Apple iPhone - Some are calling it the hottest gadget of the year. It has the ability to plug straight into your car’s cigarette lighter and enjoy its touch screen capabilities to play music, watch videos, surf the Internet and yeah, it even makes phone calls… go figure!

5. Roadside emergency kit- There is no better time of the year to receive one of these life saving gifts.

6. Aluminum gearshift knob- If you know an enthusiast with a manual sports car, they are sure to love a fine crafted aluminum gearshift knob, such as one designed by Momo.

7. Richard Petty Driving Experience- If your loved one has ever wanted to be in NASCAR, there are 20 locations around the U.S. that can make this lifelong dream a reality.

8. Car Detailing Kit- This is something that any auto enthusiast would obviously use, but they seldom actually buy for themselves.

9. Racing Cockpit- Some enthusiasts would rather be racing in the safety of their own Sparco seat planted in their living room and for these we recommend the Sparco Cockpit Pro.

10. Detail Gift Certificate- Car guru’s love a nice vehicle, but the winter months is certainly not the time to be outside with a hose, buffer, and bottle of Armor All. Why not let them relax in the warmth while somebody else does all the work.

11. Sirius Satellite Radio- The radio waves are becoming filled more and more with jibber jabber today than actual music and Sirius still provides some of the best commercial free music at a minimal cost.

12. Driving Gloves- For under $50, almost anyone can become James Bond for a day!
