Gift Suggestions, $25 – $50

6. For readers #1– The enthusiast doesn’t want a coffee table book. For them, eye candy is in the garage or at the dealership.

6 ½. For readers #2 — A gift certificate to your local bookseller for “Car” magazine wrapped by this month’s issue ($10 + gift certificate + latte purchased while at the bookstore). Some drivers may not know about “Car” and its unique position in automotive journalism. While CarReview will always be your best choice for up-to-the-minute news and consumer oriented reviews, “Car” is without peer when it comes to storytelling, photography and a unique insiders’ views of the industry. Best of all, if the recipient don’t quite love “Car”, they can always use the gift certificate to subscribe to the periodical that suits their fancy. Subscribing to Car is even more deluxe, but it can be expensive given current exchange rates.
