Car related gifts for Christmas 2009?
« on: December 25, 2009, 12:53:59 pm »
Anyone get, or give any car related gifts for Christmas 2009?

I gave myself (and my car) a early gift on Wednesday with a Formula One tint!   ;D  www.formulaone.com

I also splurged and got Fleetwood Mac Rumours on DVD Audio off ebay.    ;D

For the family, Mario Kart is now in the house, so I'll be virtual racing with my son later this afternoon  ;D

I got a pair of workshop seat covers for the cars.

Actually, I dragged the Pfaff sewing machine out and made them myself. Santa is useless on a sewing machine.  ;)

Next are a set of wheel covers so that my nice stretch satin Coverking car cover doesn't get dirty on the inside.

While not car related, this gift is neat in a mechanical way some will appreciate. 

Xikar stainless steel cigar cutter in titanium finish.  Nice heft, beautiful machining, VERY sharp.  Makes a satisfying "click" when you cut and automatically locks itself closed.

I got the Pinnacle Series.   The SATNAV receiver is located below the rear window shelf and apparently the metallic films interfere with it's reception. 

Seems there are no dealers between Sittsville and GTA... ???

Forza 3 is a superb game, so that's a great gift to get! 

Be aware however, in my experience, it doesn't help quench one's thirst for driving fast, expensive cars...  it makes the itch worse!!    :banghead:   :rofl:

Garmin Nuvi 765T was my gift for this year. More of a toy than something I needed, but still a nice gift.
I wished for few new diecast models for my collection, but they are not exactlly straight forward to buy so Santa left that for me to deal with.
