CarWoo! Holiday Gift Guide

In case you haven’t gotten tangled up in some holiday lights or found pine needles in strange places, we would like to present the CarWoo! Holiday Gift Guide as the official harbinger of the season. Some of you, like the commercials on television, will be delivering a bow-bearing new car into some lucky person’s driveway during this holiday season, and we want to be sure you do not go astray in the purchasing. The CarWoo! Gift Guide covers all of the personalities and tastes you may be trying to choose for, but just remember the most important rule of gift giving: buy what they would want, not something you wish you could have yourself.

Holiday Gift For the Teenaged Newbie Driver

The CarWoo! Holiday Gift Guide focuses on those that may just be starting out and need help avoiding becoming heck on wheels. Oh, and they need some style, of course.

Holiday Gift For Your Hard-To-Buy-For Vegan Brother in Portland

It takes all kinds here during the CarWoo! Holiday Gift Guide, so if you’ve got yourself a special family member that requires you to take along their manifesto when you go holiday shopping, these will work for you.

Toyota Prius

Some guys worried about their macho images in the Prius, but guess what? Nothing is sexier than a man who loves his planet Earth.(configure a new Prius now)

Everyone has an outlet in their home, and if you can plug it in, then you can drive the futuristic Chevy Volt. Cutting edge engineering meets a good old fashion hippie mentality for the win.(configure a new Volt now)

Holiday Gift For the Mother Who Has Everything

My mom is impossible to buy for, which isn’t helped by the fact that she’s always telling me not to get her anything. That’s not going to fly for the woman that brought your little self into this world, so here’s a few CarWoo! Holiday Gift Guide options that will leave her smiling.

Hands-Free Cell Phone Devices

Some of these bad boys look more like an elegant piece of jewelry than a hands-free device, which is the perfect accessory for the woman who enjoys safely keeping her hands at 10 and 2.

Car Accessories

Even if your beloved mum has everything she wants, I promise that she does not have car eyelashes. Browse this list of car accessories and stock her glove compartment with funny and functional toys for her car.

Holiday Gift For the Unique, Special Snowflake

You know this person – the one who has to customize all of their accessories and buy one-of-a-kind clothes from Etsy. This is not a person who cozies up to mass production, so the CarWoo! Holiday Gift Guide has selected the less traveled path to send them down.

It’s a 3-door, sleek coupe with a slight hatchback look, and when you see the Veloster on the pavement, there’s no mistaking it for something else. Snag it in Electrolyte Green or Vitamin C to ensure total spectator whiplash.(configure a new Veloster now)

Nissan Juke

This crossover manages to be both sleek and rugged simultaneously, and the Juke boasts some of the raddest technology available today. That’s sure to make things memorable for those that march to the beat of a different drum.(configure a new Juke now)

    For the hardcore car nut, I would suggest something like a Wifi OBDII module that you plug into your car and then the “Rev” iPhone app that gives you fun metrics like g forces, lap timers, speed, horsepower etc. I briefly played with one a while ago but never got the chance to take it on the track! http://paulstamatiou.com/review-rev-iphone-app-and-plx-devices-kiwi-wireless-obdii-module-part-1

      One of our cofounders downloaded Rev as soon as he got his iPhone – he had a lot of fun with it and his Viper. Good tip!
