Car people can be either the toughest, or the easiest people on the planet to buy holiday gifts for. If you understand their individual afflictions, it's a snap:
THE BRITISH CAR PERSON
A 50-pound bag of economy cat litter. Why? Because nothing absorbs fluids leaked from a British car better. A six pack of Newcastle Brown Ale would be nice, too.
ITALIAN CAR PERSON
No Italian car fan should be without a fresh copy of Pavarotti's Greatest Hits, because the music of multiple overhead cams and sucking Webers sounds oh so much better with Nessun Dorma! or La Donna è Mobile in the background.
MUSCLE CAR LOVER
This one's easy: A Summit Racing gift card. Because you can never have too much horsepower.
FRENCH CAR LOVER
Since the act of rebuilding the hydraulics of a Citröen will likely have anyone pondering the futility of his or her existence and questioning why anyone with free will would want to do such a thing in the first place, might we suggest the complete works of Sartre and Camus, two French existentialists.
JAPANESE CAR LOVER
This one's a no-brainer tooâAn English copy of the very rare book "Fairlady Z Story" by the father of the Z car (and for that matter of Japanese cars in America), Yutaka Katayama.
