Just a few of the car-themed items chosen by Edmunds.com are:

• Heated Ice Scraper ($19.95) — This device can be a real time saver for drivers living in colder climates. It comes with a flashlight, a built-in mini squeegee and a 15-foot DC cord that plugs into a car's lighter.
• Brugo Mug ($19.95) — Many drivers enjoy a toasty mug of coffee in the car on the way to work in the morning. This ritual comes with certain challenges — namely, avoiding spillage and keeping the beverage warm. The Brugo mug addresses both these issues, with its spill-proof lid and temperature-controlled chamber.
• Fifty Cars That Changed the World by Design Museum ($13.73) — This coffee table book is a must-have for anyone interested in the history of design. Compiled by London's Design Museum — which touts itself as the world's leading museum devoted to contemporary design — this tome pays tribute to icons of the car world, going all the way back to the Ford Model T, and includes such memorable choices as the Volkswagen Beetle and Jaguar E-Type.
• Whistle Key Finder ($5.95) — We've all known the frustration and wasted time that comes with misplacing car keys. With the whistle key finder attached to the keychain, all a driver needs to do is whistle, and the device will emit an audible chirp to alert him to the location of the missing keys. A built-in flashlight is also included.
