If You're Getting Desperate, Chances Are These Christmas Ideas Can't Hurt

Yes, we await your wrath in the comments section. Rather than take time out of our day to satisfy head office’s wish for some holiday gift ideas — a concept you’re no doubt thrilled with — we decided to let someone else do the work. Thankfully, there’s no scented oil in sight (though motor oil and other fluids does make a good gift; I’ve received a 4.4-liter jug under the Christmas tree more than once).

Instead, what we have here is a rare thing. Some pretty good shopping ideas for a classic car lover that doesn’t leave us squirming. Happy head office, happy staff, and hopefully not-too-perturbed reader. You just know there’ll be another one come Boxing Day. We’re already taking bets! – Steph

  • Golden2husky Tuscadero? Wonder if the interior comes in Leather...
  • Lou_BC I don't like black. I wouldn't want white because that's your standard fleet colour. I lean towards colour's that are less likely to show scratches and dings. The blue on my ZR2 is nice colour but a bad colour for showing up trail rash and dust. It wasn't my 1st choice but at the time it was the only truck I could find at a price I was willing to pay.
  • Michael I don’t have the luxury of choosing the color of my car and even people in my life who have recently purchased relatively expensive new cars are having their choice of what local dealers have or what they’re getting in soon, shades of grey and white. If I had the choice I would have gone with color when I was younger but now would choose a silver, grey, or black. Whatever looked best on the model.
  • CoastieLenn That price seems a bit high for a high mileage mid-tier Accord, especially a coupe whose resale is typically lower than the stalwart sedan. I do like this generation coupe a lot though.
  • La3541 Red is my go-to color. I love candy-apple red (guards red on Porsche). I have had several red cars. Maroon is not good though.I have always loved British racing green and recently got my first one. A British racing green 4-series that I had to special-order.Silver, black, gray, and white are pretty boring. However, as RNA656.. stated, white looks good on some cars. for more boring colors, I also like chalk on porsches. Nardo gray on Audis is pretty nice.
