I would give my dad a Mercedes Benz Gruma Hunter because he’s a shooter and loves to go hunting…. but in Molokai, Hawaii.

If you had the chance to meet my Dad and then get to know him, you would know that he likes everything a certain way. He likes a routine, so not too big on surprises. Ever since I was a kid, he would always drive a Cadillac and a Suburban. He really loved big comfortable cars. So if I had to pick a car for my Dad, I would choose the latest Chevrolet Suburban. Fully loaded, in black. Just the way he used to like it.
Dino Obias General Manager For marketing Nissan Philippines
When my Dad was still alive. He was so in love with the ‘67-‘69 Mercedes Benz 280SL ‘Mr. Slim.’ He would often mention to us that it was his dream car.

My Dad was always a BMW fan. I would buy him an M5. Because that is how I remember him. Classy, ”mayabang,” and fast. I miss him to bits…
Fabio Ide Entrepreneur, Celebrity and Racecar Driver
Ever since I was a kid my Dad always dreamt of having a BMW. I remember driving with him to my basketball game and every time we would pass one he would mention and say that one day he would have one. Unfortunately, he still hasn’t got one and I really hope through my hard work I will be able to surprise him one day.
